- When a mailbox is opened that has this annotation enabled, we open the
seen state database for the special 'anyone' user instead of the

changes. Perhaps we could come up with a better userid then 'anyone'
but its already reserved as special via ACL.
It will work as long as we want to use shared folder for every user.
As soon as we want to restrict access to a set of users, this would not
work.
That's what the 's' right is for. Only give 's' to those users that you
want to be able to mark messages as seen.
Ah, 'anyone' will be used only to store per-mailbox seen records.
(Sorry for misunderstanding, I was still sleeping at the moment. :-)
Where to store this file? Again, what about replication?
The same place as the rest of the per-user seen databases. It *should*
replicate fine, but I haven't thought it through.
