I'm running Dovecot 2.1.12 on FreeBSD (quite successfully so, thanks for this nice piece of software!). One thing which is slightly annoying though is that automatically created mailboxes (I have lda_mailbox_autocreate set) don't have the file permissions I'd like them to have.
Right now, newly created mailbox directories (e.g. /home/vmail/bob) have 0700 permissions, but I'd like to have 0750 for all directories and 0640 for all files so that all files and directories are group-readable for backup purposes.
Does anybody know whether this is configurable somehow?
As far as I know and in my 2.1.14 it is like that:
the .XYZ directory inherits its permission to any new .XYZ.ABC mailbox (second level and down).
the Maildir/ directory inherits its permission to any new .XYZ mailbox (top level).
Files get the permission of the directory minus "x".
This is true for "CREATE" command and Dovecot deliver.
