[Dovecot] Multiple domains with shared Folder - how to?

2008-12-22 Thread Volker Siebelink

Hello,

I set up Dovecot so that I now have about 20 domains on my mailserver. 
So far everything works fine.
Now I have the need to set up shared maildirs, but they shall only be 
shared for the users of just one domain. What do I have to do?


Thanks in advance for any hint!

Volker

I now tried using symlinks. Works fine, BUT:

Note that if a user creates for example Team News.Child mailbox it 
gets created into the user's own Maildir, not into /home/public/Maildir/.


Our users are allowed to create subfolders in the shares (currently we 
use Cyrus). Can this be done with Docecot too?

Depends on your configuration (virtual/real users, mailbox format, 
etc.) If you use virtual users and share one uid for all virtual users 
things are easy.  Use symlinks.
If uid is not one for all users, you'll need to have a dovecot-shared 
file in each shared maildir.
