Hi,
I am unable to subscribe to shared folders with Thunderbird although
everything seems to be correct (dovecot 1.2).
What does not work? I click "Subscribe..." in Thunderbird. The shared
mailboxes are listed, all with [ ] (no checkbox). Therefore I mark them
[x], click "subscribe" and "OK". However, the folders do not appear in
the folder tree. Furthermore, when I again click "Subscribe..." the
folders do NOT have the mark [x] any more. This happens on different
computers with *new* profiles.
My configuration is the following (maybe that is the problem?!):
namespace private {
separator = .
prefix =.
inbox = no
list = no
hidden = yes
location = maildir:~/Maildir-root
subscriptions = yes
}
namespace private {
separator = .
prefix = INBOX.
inbox = yes
subscriptions = yes
}
namespace public {
separator = .
prefix = Shared.
location = maildir:/var/mail/shared:INDEX=~/Maildir/shared:LAYOUT=fs
subscriptions = no
}
The folder /var/mail/shared has appropriate permissions/form:
* Owner: $user:mailuser (all users are member of "mailuser")
* All files 0660, all folders 0770
* There exists a dovecot-shared in every folder
* There exists a dovecot-acl in each folder where each user has the
permissions "lrwstie"
I switched on "mail_debug = yes" but no messages.
However, the file ~/Maildir-root/subscriptions contains the subscribed
folders:
Shared.Group1
Shared.Group2
Shared.Group1/Test
Furthermore, I switched on rawlog. Everything seems to be OK as well:
.in-file:
2 subscribe "Shared.Group1"
3 lsub "" "INBOX.*"
5 lsub "" "Shared.*"
6 list "" "INBOX"
.out-file:
2 OK Subscribe completed.
[...]
I am pretty sure it already worked. But it stopped working. Does anybody
have a hint what could be the problem?
Regards,
Luke
