OK, finally figured a few things out...

I understand the logic but it took time to figure out how to do the obvious... I fumbled with some web clients and found one that showed the #Users folders. After subscribing I could then see them in T-Bird. If I unsubscribe from Tbird I couldn't see them to sub again.

Add the appropriate records into the dbmail_subscribe table and TB will see the folders again. When TB unsubscribes, these records are deleted from the table and in my experience, must be added again before the client will be able to view the folders. Strange but acceptable.

As far as managing a user's own shared folders I still don't see a way to do it in T-bird. It shows me that I have Full rights and that it is shared but there are no options to do anything with it. Looking at the Mozilla forums I see a dev pointing that out as a missing feature. So when people tell me how easy it is to manage the shares from Tbird I'm wondering who is juxtaposing their logic. :)


Surpisingly easy once I stopped tying to use DBMA for this. Here are the 3 steps:

1. Add a record to the dbmail_acl table with the following information:
  - The user id of the user's mailbox that is being shared.
  - The mailbox id that is being shared
  - All other values should be set to a value of 1.

2. Add another record to the dbmail_acl with:
  - The user id of the user you are granting the permissions to.
  - The mailbox id (same as above)
  - All other values should be set accordingly (see column names)

3. If supporting TB clients, add appropriate records to the dbmail_subscription table.




Not a problem since I wouldn't use OE for any reason.


Amen..

Thanks!

Best,

Adam
