Dovecot has the capability to define and use shared folders, complete
with ACLs. That is where I'd look for a solution. Be sure to use a
fairly recent (2.0.x) release. IIRC shared folders were introduced in
v1.2, but ACLs came along in v2.0.

Those are archived (local) files on the servers and therefore
are not available via imap because these servers are web servers
and not email servers. In other words, they are created by
qmail client with email addrs like<local_user>-all@localmachine.
We just want these email files to be accessible as regular files
via nfs mount.

Shortcutting all of the permissions issues, if you have an e-mail
account that is to be shared, why not just use one mailbox that
multiple people can access with IMAP?
There is no "limit" to the number of users who can be logged into a
single IMAP account -- I do this all the time for "bosses" and their
"secretaries". It can even be setup so that the "secretary" either
can, or cannot, send messages FROM the "boss".
The only thing "special" about this setup is that the "secretary's"
system has to know the password to the "boss's" email account. But
so long as an Admin sets it up so that the "secretary" doesn't
actually know the password, it's reasonably secure...
