Am i asking this because i've already read this page:

Unless you're using a single UID for all the users, you'll need to have
a dovecot-shared file in each shared maildir

so in my previous email i wrote : (same uid.gid)

and that in the public location i use something like :

maildir:/var/mail/shared:INDEX=/var/mail/shared/%u/index/:CONTROL=/var/mail/shared/%u/control/

i've used the %u variable but didnt work.

PS: Thanks although for the answer.
