Hi,
first, sorry for my english, i hope u understand me :-/
I try to set up dovecot with imap and maildir. I run into a permission problem. I need to have read and execute rights of all folders and mails for the group (needed by the backup deamon).
first I tried with umask, but this only affect folders and no mails. Then I read about dovecot-shared and tried this. Permissions are now ok but and this is a big but., I have troubles with thunderbird.
I copied a folder from an pop3 account to the imap account (Inbox->subfolder). Now all mails are unread. OK i mark all as read. Now I move a message to the inbox and back to the subfolder an wonder, the mail is now marked as unreaded again.
When i set up the mailboxes without the dovecot-shared file, the behaviour above is gone!! But my permission problem is back :-(
Permissions of dovecot-shared is 750 and the mainfolder is 750 with g+s
can anybody help me?
thank u alot
