I'd like to be able to deliver e.g. new mail to the technical support
directly to "Shared/tech/" but if that's not possible, it isn't a big
problem, I'll just use "Shared/tech/INCOMING".
You can't deliver to namespaces using 1.0 dovecot tree only 1.1
support it.
Using dovecot's 'deliver' in 1.0, you can't. It's pretty easy using
another MDA/LDA.
e.g. using procmail: DEFAULT=/var/spool/mail/Shared/tech/
Yes, I'm already doing exactly that:
tech-support: "| /usr/bin/procmail DEFAULT=/var/spool/mail/Shared/tech/
UMASK=007"
But the problem is that clients won't see the mails, unless I create an
empty directory "/var/spool/mail/Shared/tech/.INBOX". Once that
directory is in place, clients will show the delivered mails in
"Shared/tech/INBOX". (Even though I delivered them to "../tech/".)
I figured as much; sorry to have been unclear. I was just pointing out
that Nikolay's concern about 'deliver' was orthogonal to the
non-SELECT-able namespace-root problem.
Best,
