That's about as basic as it gets... did you read the wiki? What exactly
are you having trouble with?

v1.2:

v2.0:

you can find more informations in the Wiki. See:

http://wiki2.dovecot.org/SharedMailboxes/Shared
http://wiki2.dovecot.org/ACL

(These informations are for Dovecot 2.x).

You must define a namespace (shared) and create the appropriate acls.  
An acl looks like


  user=u...@example.com rl

This acl (filename: dovecot-acl) can be stored in the folder you would  
like to share which means that user "u...@example.com" can "read" and  
"list" the mailbox.


Some IMAP clients supports shared folders so if you configure Dovecot  
correctly you can manage this within your client software but you can  
also do this manually.
