Understood but it has worked flawlessly from InDesign for a year with POSIX 
permissions. Upon changing to ACLs, we get a permissions error from InDesign. 
Today we removed the ACLs, and went back to conventional permissions and now 
InDesign can write directly into these drop folders.

It seems the expectations for at least InDesign is different between POSIX 
permissions and ACLs. The Finder behavior is consistent with either method, but 
InDesign is not.
