Hi everyone,
I feel like I am missing something obvious here. I have dovecot up
and running and every piece of mail is given user read/write
permission. I see the option mail_gid, but I do not see anyplace to set
the group permissions. I see the below wiki talking about new home
directories getting their permission from the parent directory, but this
does not seem to work. Any assistance would be appreciated.
http://wiki2.dovecot.org/SharedMailboxes/Permissions
I changed the group permissions on the parent directory, and used rm -rf
to delete the user directories, then logged in again so it was recreated.
[user@dovecot ~]$ sudo ls -la /mnt/home/imapd/domain.example.net/
total 24
drwxr-x--- 6 imapd imapd 4096 Oct 21 17:35 .
drwxr-xr-x 46 imapd nagios 4096 Oct 21 16:55 ..
drwx------ 3 imapd imapd 4096 Oct 21 16:59 user1
drwx------ 3 imapd imapd 4096 Oct 21 17:35 user2
Setup
Mail is written in dbox format
CentOS 5.9
dovecot 2.2.6
NFS with director
Mail Configs
mail_home = /mnt/home/imapd/%d/%n
mail_location = dbox:/mnt/home/imapd/%d/%n
mail_uid = imapd
mail_gid = imapd
Thanks,
Chris
