It's going to be annoyingly difficult.
http://wiki.dovecot.org/SharedMailboxes/Permissions describes the
issues, but doesn't really tell what is a good way to do it, because
there really are only bad ways. Dovecot v3.0 will hopefully solve
this. :)

[Dovecot] shared folders in v1.2 with one uid per user

[Ezequiel Alfíe]

Hello everyone.

I'm new to dovecot and I'm setting up a server for one domain only. I
have not yet decided whether I will be using one uid per user or one
uid for all of them.

What are the steps for correctly setting up shared folders with acls
if I choose one uid per user?

What advantages or disadvantages has setting one uid for all users vs
one uid per user, considering I wish to setup shared folders
(including security, performance, etc) ?

Thanks in advance,

Ezequiel
