[Dovecot] List shared folders

[Marcio Merlone]

Good morning!

I run an imap-only Ubuntu 8.04 mail server with dovecot 1.2 and 
pam_ldap, so all my users are posix users. No virtual user or domain, no 
sql so far. I am setting up shared folders with "namespace shared". I 
got no errors upon restarting the service, but I get no shared folders 
listing.

As per the wiki http://wiki.dovecot.org/SharedMailboxes/Shared I can use 
a bdb file or sql connection to keep the listing. But when I use a 
single bdb file like:

plugin {
   acl_shared_dict = file:/var/lib/dovecot/shared-mailboxes.db
}

everytime a user logs in, this file get its ownership to the user with 
0600 mode. I could use an sql dictionary, but since I dont have any sql 
params on my configs I am not sure where to store connection params like 
user, password and host for database. Can anybody help me with that?

My goal is to allow my users to shared selected folders with other 
users, hope to be in the right path.

Thanks and regards.
