BTW, yesterday I noticed my dovecot 1.1.11 servers acting like the dovecot-acl is recursive in my public folders, much like 1.2 seems to be, but I cannot recall 1.1.x ever acting that way. Am I crazy or did it change sometime before 1.2? Thanks.

In v1.1 you can I don't think you should have anything like that.. signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

[Dovecot] New need to delete dovecot-acl-list in dovecot 1.2?
I just started testing 1.2.3 then 1.2.4 this week, I was too busy earlier in the year to look at 1.2 at all. So far so good except I noticed newly granted permissions via ACL on some newly created public mailboxes were not visible by the client. It seemed to be a version thing because the same files work fine concurrently on a server running 1.1.x. I came across this in the ACLwiki which seems to fix it: List cache dovecot-acl-list file lists all mailboxes that have l rights assigned. If you manually add/edit dovecot-acl files, you may need to delete the dovecot-acl-list to get the mailboxes visible. I don't ever recall needing to do this before, and it sounds similar to this which I have had set to 10 for a long time: # cache_secs parameter # specifies how many seconds to wait between stat()ing dovecot-acl file # to see if it changed. All of my dovecot-acl files are symlinks so hopefully it runs stat() on the target, but just in case I tried recreating the symlink afterwards but it didn't help and its over NFS so who knows if the running dovecot 'saw' it. Do I need to debug this behavior further or will I just have to live with remembering to delete the dovecot-acl-list file when I manually change dovecot-acl contents? Thanks.
