Hi all, Although noone answered, I figured out how to set negative rights via doveadm. You should not prefix the username with '-' (as you should do in a normal IMAP setacl command). Instead you should specify the *rights* starting with a '-'. There are two problems with this:
1. The '-username' version runs smoothly and does not throw any errors. However, it does *not* set negative rights. It adds a useless entry for a user named '-username' 2. If you try to specify the rights with a '-', such as '-writeseen', doveadm throws an error like this: set: invalid option -- 'w' So the solution is to add '--' to the command line signaling the end of the options: sudo -u vmail doveadm acl set -u user@domain -- "Spam" user=user@domain -write-seen Regards, Peter Peter Benko <[email protected]> írta: >Hi all, > >I'm trying to set an ACL with negative rights.
