I have some problems with setting shared mailboxes . I use dovecot
1.2.11 with following namespaces :
mail_location: maildir:~
namespace:
type: private
separator: .
inbox: yes
list: yes
subscriptions: yes
namespace:
type: private
separator: .
prefix: INBOX.
hidden: yes
list: no
subscriptions: yes
namespace:
type: shared
separator: .
prefix: shared.%%n.
location: maildir:/home/sites/%d/mail/%%n/Maildir/
list: children
plugin:
acl: vfile
acl_shared_dict: proxy::acl
dict:
acl: mysql:/usr/local/etc/dovecot-share-sql.conf
In the private namespace I use to have only INBOX. space because I have
migrate from courier and I ahave problemes with duplicate folders.
The disk structure looks like :
/home/sites/domain.tld/mail/user(withoutdomain)/Maildir
What I'am trying to do is to give access to a user (us...@domain.tld)
some other user mailbox (us...@domain.tld).
in the /home/sites/domain.tld/mail/user1/Maildir I have created a file
dovecot-acl with :
owner lrwstipekxa
user=us...@domain.tld rl
- in the dovecot-share-sql.conf I have :
connect = host=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock dbname=xxxx user=xxx
password=postfixpass
map {
pattern = shared/shared-boxes/user/$to/$from
table = user_shares
value_field = dummy
fields {
from_user = $from
to_user = $to
}
}
and in the user_share table :
+-------------------+------------------+-------+
| from_user | to_user | dummy |
+-------------------+------------------+-------+
| us...@myhost.ro | us...@domain.tld | 1 |
| user1 | user2 | 1 |
+-------------------+------------------+-------+
(not sure what I need %n or %u)
Now , in TB under the user2 , if I check subscribe , under the shared, I
have a INBOX folder that is always check but nothing else. From what I
understand I suppose to see user1 folders and I think it is something
wrong with my config (namespaces, paths).
If someone have succeeded to configure dovecot with shared mailboxes and
namespaces that use . as separator please help me.
Alex.
