Sieve does server sided filtering, so before the email ever hit the
special user's inbox, it is moved to the special use shared folder.
I've named the special user "shared" with password "shared" and user
group 3. The email sent to the "shared" user needs to automatically be
moved to the shared folder, so its available to everyone subscribed to
the shared folder. I have [#Public] included in the subject line of the
email, which sieve uses to filter and move the emails into the shared
folder.
When I sent an email to the special user the sieve filter caught it and
moved it into the shared folder of user shared, no problem, and the
email was then available to everyone. Then I had another user reply to
the email, and again it when to the "shared" user and showed up to
everyone. Then I had a second user reply to the email, but it didn't
show up to everyone; because, the from address, (e.g. reply address),
had changed, so the reply went to another user other than "shared". The
other user did not have a sieve script to move the email into the shared
folder.
Now I am comtemplating whether to set up a sieve filter on ever user, so
regardless of who received the reply, it would be available to all, or
Perhaps it would be better to change the [Reply to] address of the
Thunderbird cleint to [EMAIL PROTECTED], but then all replies would
go the the shared folder and be available to all user, even when it was
private email not intended to be shared.
I think I would need to set up a sieve filter with every user of the
group to insure it worked like mailman, but it definite look like its
possible to do this.

Thanks for the reply. I'm not familiar with using a .forward file.
I'm going to try to set up a sieve filter to move mail coming into an
inbox of a special user to the shared folders. I'll set up a special
user with the shared folder that would receive all emails and replies
on a thread. I'll have a flag in the subject header like [Dbmail
Shared Folder 1], for example, that sieve can catch to move the email
into the Shared Folder 1 of the speical user.
Why's the [Dbmail Shared Folder 1] part necessary if you're going to
have a custom user for this anyway?
