Previous posts below, here why I guess this one fails:
http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.2/file/c55c660d6e9d/src/plugins/acl/acl-api.c#l744
It says: …a user can't match multiple usernames…
In my setup this is not true: there is only one user, but she goes by
several names. (Like in /etc/passwd several users can have the same ID.)
I do not understand the source, but I guess the acl is attached to the
"user" and therefore I am out of luck in my adventure: no way short of
having a "userdb_acl_user" parameter in passdb.
Kind regards

Trying to get ACLs working, very basic setup:
Virtual users are put into different acl_group via passdb.
u:{PLAIN}B::userdb_acl_groups=g
The global acl file restricts what they can do.
* group-override=g
* group=g lr
Shouldn't this mean, that the group rights override the user rights?
The effect that I see though is, that the user "u" then may not do
anything, not even lookup and read.
Further to this experiment, I made the ACLs to not use any group
settings at all, only trying to lock down the server for anybody, like
that:
root@xxx:/etc/dovecot# cat dovecot-acl
* user=archiv lr
* owner lr
* authenticated lr
* anyone lr
Yet, I still can delete messages from anywhere - What am I missing?

The virtual users all act as the system user, their names are just icing
for auditing.
