hm

read

http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Tools/Doveadm/ACL

and

http://wiki.dovecot.org/ACL

decide what fits better in your usecase

long time ago i modified acl files via cron directly
but i think more clean way is to use doveadm cause
it may give additional warnings and fits better to all kind of mailbox
type setups
