I'm having trouble making folders work in piler. I do realize this is
not an
'official' feature, but it might be exactly the thing I need. This is
my
use case: I want to archive the emails of two users, Alice and Bob,
and
both should have access only to their own emails. I won't be using
smtp,
just pilerimport from time to time. Ideally I would not like to bother
with
the various email addresses or domains the users have.
To me this looks just like the feature folders could offer, using
pilerimport -F alice ...
or
pilerimport -F bob ...
However I cannot make this work the way I want, I'm confused how to
manage
the folders. I deleted everything, databases and sphinx index to have
a
fresh start as described in the FAQ, and I edited the configuration
files
to enable folders. Then I imported a few mails with pilerimport -F
alice,
but I cannot see them as auditor. I tried to create a regular user
alice@local and to give this user permission to the folder alice. As
admin,
on the 'edit user' page I see 'Search folders' and 'Folders', but when
I
enter 'alice' to either field this does not seem to have any visible
effect, when the user settings are loaded again both fields are empty.
Also
I'm not sure if I have to create the folders somewhere before actually
using them. In the admin account there is no folder menu.
Sorry if I got this all wrong. Could you maybe explain how it is
supposed to
work?
the folder idea may be used to override the usual permissions based on
the sender
or recipient addresses. Thus it's no more any use if you are an auditor,
you need
specific access rights for the given folder(s).
So login as admin, create a user, and assign him either alice or bob
folder.
Then login as this user, and verify that you can actually see this
folder on
the settings page.
Finally click on the search button, and show me the sphinx query (see
the maillog).
