Dear All,

I'm trying (and failing) to implement a shared mailbox folder. My goal is to share the inbox of a user 'invoices' to a test user 'rubbish'. My ACLs appear to be correct:
# doveadm acl get -u invoices inbox
ID                 Global Rights
user=rubbish create delete expunge insert lookup post read write write-deleted write-seen

The shared-dict is being generated:
# cat /var/lib/dovecot/db/shared-mailboxes
shared/shared-boxes/user/rubbish/invoices
1

Yet when I try to list the mailboxes, the shared namespace has no children:
. login rubbish password
. OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE SORT SORT=DISPLAY THREAD=REFERENCES THREAD=REFS THREAD=ORDEREDSUBJECT MULTIAPPEND URL-PARTIAL CATENATE UNSELECT CHILDREN NAMESPACE UIDPLUS LIST-EXTENDED I18NLEVEL=1 CONDSTORE QRESYNC ESEARCH ESORT SEARCHRES WITHIN CONTEXT=SEARCH LIST-STATUS SPECIAL-USE BINARY MOVE QUOTA ACL RIGHTS=texk] Logged in
. list "" "*"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren \Trash) "/" Trash
* LIST (\HasNoChildren \Drafts) "/" Drafts
* LIST (\HasNoChildren \Sent) "/" Sent
* LIST (\Noselect \HasNoChildren) "/" shared
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" INBOX
. OK List completed.

I've gone through all the documentation I can find but still can't sort this out. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
