I have some problems with setting shared mailboxes . I use dovecot

okay.
location: maildir:/home/sites/%d/mail/%%n/Maildir/
For consistency this would also be clearer if it was:
location = maildir:%%h
Although, do you really have the Maildir/ path included in users' home
dirs? That's not right. http://wiki.dovecot.org/VirtualUsers/Home
I forgot to mention that I previously migrate from courier. I intend to
solve this problem too.
Any way from your posts I understand that the use of namespaces with
separator like . is not a very good choice. I use to have prefix INBOX.
and . separator for my private namespace.
I manage to change the config and maintain the compatibility , so now my
namespaces looks like this:
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:INDEX=~/shared/%%n
list: children
in the /home/sites/domain.tld/mail/user1/Maildir I have created a file
dovecot-acl with :
You should use IMAP's SETACL commands to change the ACLs. I can't
remember the details of how it works either.
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).
You shared only user1's INBOX to user2. User2 can't see anything else
without user1 sharing them. There's currently no way to set "share all
of user1's mailboxes to user2".
I understand the part with sharing every folder from the mailbox user1
so that user2 to see everything from user1 mailbox.
Now seems to work with previously mention modifications but it is not
perfect so I suppose that is still something wrong.
Now user2 can see the inbox of user1, can read his emails...but:
- in user2 inbox I have (in sq, but also in tb) :
+ shared
- INBOX (don't now what represents, on click : ERROR: Could not
complete request.
Query: SELECT "shared//INBOX"
Reason Given: Mailbox doesn't exist: INBOX)
- INBOX (user1 inbox - OK)
- on the first login of user2 , in /home/sites/domain.tld/mail/ , is
creating a orphan folder Maildir , and on select of a first "INBOX"
shared folder , in /home/sites/domain.tld/mail/ is creating a orphan
folder shared.
