Thanks so Joe Hrbek [EMAIL PROTECTED] I've resolved the issue. To follow up, here was my 'lm' and 'lam':
localhost> lm INBOX.Drafts (\NonExistent \HasNoChildren) INBOX.Sent (\NonExistent \HasNoChildren) INBOX.Trash (\NonExistent \HasNoChildren) user/jpt (\HasChildren) user/jpt/Drafts (\HasNoChildren) user/jpt/Sent (\HasNoChildren) user/jpt/Trash (\HasNoChildren) user/s.schahn (\HasChildren) user/s.schahn/Trash (\HasNoChildren) user/s.schahn/test (\HasNoChildren)
Wait an minute. Assuming you authenticated to the server as an admin, you have two sets of user INBOXes (jpt and s.schahm) and 3 shared folders INBOX.*.
localhost> lam * user/jpt: jpt lrswipcda user/jpt/Drafts: jpt lrswipcda user/jpt/Sent: jpt lrswipcda user/jpt/Trash: jpt lrswipcda user/s.schahn: s.schahn lrswipcda user/s.schahn/Trash: s.schahn lrswipcda user/s.schahn/test: s.schahn lrswipcda localhost> lam INBOX* localhost> lam INBOX.Drafts anyone lrswipcda localhost> lam INBOX.Sent anyone lrswipcda localhost> lam INBOX.Trash anyone lrswipcda
The above ACLs are correct, assuming that you have defaultacl set to lrswipcda
The original problem is that the 'INBOX.*' for everyone was sitting at the top level. Joe Hrbek inquired about the ACL and observed that user cyrus needed permissions to the user's mailbox.
I'm confused, the cyrus admin does *not* need access to user mailboxes for delivery to take place (at least for the INBOX). What exactly as you trying to do.
Mail is now correctly stored in the individual mailboxes as opposed to attempting to store everyone's incoming/trash/drafts/sent mail in a shared top level.
BTW: I have been using cyradm to create the mailboxes. I will now look into why cyrus isn't given permission when the toplevel user mailbox is created.
What toplevel user INBOX? As I said above, the INBOX.* mailboxes don't belong to anybody, they are shared and get defaultacl when they are created. The user/<userid> mailboxes are the actual INBOXes and have the owner getting all rights by default.
Thanks Joe!!!

I also recently changed to 'unixhierachysep: yes' and have a slightly different problem with INBOX*. In my case, I've used the correct cm, however, I only get 1 set of INBOX^* folders at the top level and no INBOX'es for individual users. I use SquirrelMail as a WEB interface and everyone can see anything in the INBOX'es. I'm still in the process of bringing the whole system up so I only have two or three users at the moment for testing purposes. Anyways, if anyone has thoughts on what might be going on, I'd appreciate hearing them.
I'm nto sure I understand the problem. This might be an issue with squirrelmail, but I don't know. If you can post the output of cyradm lm, we might be able to help.
