Hi Andy,

Thank you for your prompt reply.

How do you create mailboxes now?
I used cyradm and createmailbox, e.g. createmailbox
user/username@DOMAIN, to create mailboxes.

Any idea how to create folder in cyradm? Simply createmailbox
user/username@DOMAIN/spam, and then set ACL permissions for
user/username@DOMAIN/spam ?
Yes, that's exactly what you need to do!

Actually, unless you need something out of the ordinary, you can skip setting the ACL for the child mailbox, as it will inherit from its parent (from the docs page http://cyrusimap.org/docs/cyrus-imapd/2.4.17/overview.php#acl ):

   Initial ACLs for Newly Created Mailboxes
   When a mailbox is created, its ACL starts off with a copy of the ACL
   of its closest parent mailbox. When a user is created, the ACL on
   the user's INBOX starts off with a single entry granting all rights
   to the user. When a non-user mailbox is created and does not have a
   parent, its ACL is initialized to the value of the "defaultacl"
   option in "/etc/imapd.conf"

   Note that some rights are available implicitly, for example
   'anonymous' always has 'p' on user INBOXes, and users always have
   rights on mailboxes within their INBOX hierarchy.

Cheers,
