Hi,
RFC 2086 defines the special user 'anyone' to change rights for every
user (for example make a mailbox readable for every user - that's what I
try to do). Am I right that 'anyone' isn't implemented yet?
I've just looked through the code and through the rfc. I can't believe
I missed that. How strange. And stupid.
(I'm staring at the screen in amazement now).

OK, I'll try to find the cleanest and quickest solution to this. IMAP
ACL without 'anyone' is just broken. :(
Ilja..
The fix was actually quite easy. Only one function needs to be changed,
acl_has_right() in acl.c. If a user does not have some permission to a
mailbox, it's checked wether or not 'anyone' perhaps has the permission.
One key thing to notice is this:
We need to add a user to the database with the name 'anyone'. This is
unavoidable. We cannot have another user with the name 'anyone', even if
we put IMAP_ACL_ANYONE in the database with an obsfucated name, like
[EMAIL PROTECTED]@__, because a command like
SETACL mailbox anyone lr
would not make any sense anymore.
Anyway:
The code has been fixed (it also works without an 'anyone' user in the
database). We just need to put the 'anyone' user into the database in
the creation & migration scripts.
Any remarks about this?
