Hi,
Thanks a lot for the reply! A simple
location = mdbox:/var/lib/vmail/mail/%%u
was the solution. (my tests before with INDEX files obviously broke some stuff,
so I just created empty users and it worked as it should with my initial config)
best regards,
infoomatic

> } First note, that you use %u in the default location, but %n in the shared
namespace definition. IMHO, you must stick to one, as only one is correct in
your setup. Second, reread http://wiki2.dovecot.org/SharedMailboxes/Shared Say
user1 is sharing to user2, then your second namespace tells Dovecot to look for
user1's mailboxes in /var/lib/vmail/mail/user1/mailboxes/shared/user2, you most
likely need to replicate the default mail_location there with %'s doubled. Then
you must decide, where each user's INDEX and CONTROL information is stored, or
if flags are shared as well. - From your current definition I would say, you
need: location = mdbox:/var/lib/vmail/mail/%%u:INDEX=~/shared/%%u First part
points to the directory of the user sharing the mailboxes, INDEX= places
user-specific files of the user accessing shared mailboxes into his/her own
hierarchie. - -- Steffen Kaiser -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG
