doveadm(__public__): Error: Can't create mailbox sys/test: Permission deniedAssuming you have a sys/ namespace prefix for a public namespace, then I guess this fails because the default ACL prevents all accesses.
but if I do:
# doveadm mailbox create -u __public__ test
every thing is OK.
And this works because "" is a private namespace and its default ACL gives admin access.
“sys" is a shared maildir folder, that is visible in the client as "#Public/sys”.
Shouldn't you have used "#Public/sys/test" as the mailbox name then?
__public__ is the user that owns Public folders, here is the complete details:
userdb: __public__ uid : 10002 gid : 8 home : /var/mail/domainname/__public__ mail : maildir:~/maildir:INBOX=~/maildir/INBOX:LAYOUT=fs:INDEX=~/indexes/
This doesn't really tell me what mailboxes other people then see. The same __public__/maildir/ is the other users' #Public/sys/ namespace? Then shouldn't it work if you just create "test" and it shows up to others as #Public/sys/test?
Anyway .. dovecot -n output would have been helpful. I've done too much guessing above.
Do I have to add root with proper permissions to ACL?
No.
You’re right, I should give you definitions for namespaces.
Here it is:
namespace { inbox = no list = children location = maildir:/var/mail/%d/__public__/maildir/:LAYOUT=fs:INDEX=~/indexes/public/ prefix = "#Public/" separator = / subscriptions = no type = public }
so, #Public (/var/mail/domainname/__public__) is the “root” of my namespace, “sys” is a folder inside #Public.
Anyway, I’ve solved putting correct permissions in ACLs. One thing: I did not find anywhere informations about the necessity to put an ACL even on “root” of namespace. I’ve added a proper dovecot-acl file in /var/mail/domainname/__public__ and wverything started to work.
Anyway, thanks again for your effort in deciphering my previous post :) and thanks for the great program dovecot is!
