Actually it depends.  I've found in dovecot 1.0 and 1.1, if you have a 
dovecot-shared file in the public folder, it forces private flags such as

read.  The wiki has some information about dovecot-shared.

  the "safecat" program 
  which delivers messages from stdin to a Maildir specified on the cmdline.
  Along with the safecat comes a "maildir" sh-script that is a wrapper for
  safecat and makes things shorter.

[Dovecot] namespace public folders

[Nikolay Shopik]

Hi list,
Here is thing im trying to accomplish. I would like to setup public folders 
which resposible for delivering mails for some speical addresses like [EMAIL 
PROTECTED] And it will be perfect if "seen" status for this folder will be 
saved per user. I mean if one user read message and set it as read other user 
should see it still as unread. As I far i know there some limitation in 1.0 
tree but not in lates 1.1.
My question is can I do such setup with dovecot+postfix. Im really appreciate 
for simple examples how can i accomplish this kind setup if it possible :)
