Hello Craig,
I did this some weeks ago and documented my attempt at https://ychaouche.informatick.net/dovecotsharefolders
I hope this helps.
Yassine.

The need:
- I'd like to create a mailbox called "accounts", email would simply get delivered to the account via "accounts@example.com" (Maildir format)
- Share this mailbox so it appears in three other accounts as an extra folder called "accounts"
- If a user reads an email in the "accounts" folder, I'd like the other users to know this.
a) symlink /mail/location/accounts/Maildir to /mail/location/user1/Maildir/.accounts
that will map the INBOX only and works only if your filesystem level permissions allows the access.
b) use ACLs and a shared namespace
