I have created several user0..n Created regular Maildir for each. Created shared mail directory for user0: maildirmake -S /home/user0/Mailshare maildirmake -s write,group -f daily /home/user0/Mailshare maildirmake --add msg=/home/user0/Mailshare /home/user0/Maildir the rights for .daily/new drwxrwx--T create .forward user0-msg -> save $home/Mailshare/.msg 006 swap to user1 maildirmake --add msg=/home/user0/Mailshare /home/user1/Maildir /usr/sbin/sendmail -v [EMAIL PROTECTED] From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: test message #0001 test message #0001 . As a result, the message is landed in the right place of the shared folder of user0, but when MUA tries to open shared folder, courier imap said in the syslog failed: Operation not permitted - when try to "rename" the file in folder "new" to "cur"! I have some kind of work around, create a mailfake with "new" is a soft link right to the "cur" of the shared folder, but I'm not sure that it would be good. Any ideas? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
