Shared mailboxes doc
Hi list, I was experimenting with shared mailboxes today. That's something new I've never used before. I wrote a wiki page of my setup on debian squeeze (still on cyrus 2.2) and was wondering if that was the state of the art, or if there were any better way to do it. http://wiki.linuxwall.info/doku.php/en:ressources:dossiers:cyrus:shared_mailbox Also, I didn't find any documentation on the subject on the website. Did I miss something ? Thanks, Julien Cyrus Home Page: http://www.cyrusimap.org/ List Archives/Info: http://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/pipermail/info-cyrus/

We have rolled out SOGo as web-based groupware with email calendaring
and contacts for 13,000 users and it uses our Cyrus IMAP server
structure as backend for messages (using as session id obfuscator[1] as
this was not implemented in time of rollout, but it will be in version
1.3.5).
SOGo offers a sharing option and our users seem to understand IMAP
access rights with this web front end so we're happy.
IMAP ACLs remain abstract until a decent user interface appears. Users
_LOVE_ this feature but nearly nobody knows it because most IMAP clients
cannot set them.

Did > I miss something ? Looks good, thanks. For years the most up-to-date documentation seems to have been ancient. Does anyone know the option that needs to be set (and how to set it) in order to do a "bulletin board". i.e. have a separate SEEN state for each user?
