hi everyone,
i'm working with a system where are all mail users use the same home
directory /home/mailusers. i can't change the home directory because of
an other applications which needs this configuration. now i want imapd
to use an alternate home-directory for each user. like
/home/mailusers/user1 for user no. 1, /home/mailusers/user2 for user
no.2 and so on. mailboxes which are created by those users (like Trash
and Spam) should go to this directory, like /home/mailusers/user1/Trash.
I tried changing blackBoxDir in env_unix.c to the specific Username. i
did this by adding
blackBoxDir = cpystr(myUserName); to the function env_init. if i'll
compile, run, and connect to imapd now, the imap server would reply the
correct contents of the new mailboxes (like Trash would lead to
/home/mailusers/user1/Trash) and everything works fine, BUT if i try to
create a new mailbox, he creates it, but into the home-dir
/home/mailusers . so it's created in the wrong place and i can't read
from it.
what would be a good point to look at to find the functions of imapd
which create those mailboxes. i had my problems browsing the source.
thanks for any advice.
