Hi, I need to create a symlink to share mailboxes. I tried to check at : cd /var/mail/ but I cant see all the mailboxes. Could someone advise how to do this?
I am trying to achieve as showing in tutorial here:- http://wiki.dovecot.org/SharedMailboxes/Symlinks
Below is the details of my dovecot.conf Appreciate if anyone can help.
