Hi list!
I have an account (let's say info@mydomain.com) that should be read from more people. These people does NOT have an account on the server. Currently info@mydomain.com is a forward to their addresses, but of course this solution has a huge problem: if info@ receives spam that the server does not recognize, the server forwards spam...
Now I want to solve this problem and I had the idea to change info@ from "forward" to "local account". Then, I can read the E-Mails via IMAP.
Now the question: if I have 5-6 people accessing the account via IMAP, has Dovecot (2.2.13 from Debian repositories) problems?
Is there other solution, if the users don't want to have an account on the server?
Thanks a lot for your suggestion

Emails can only be read if they are authenticated / authorized in someway to access the store. That means you might need to share the info@ credentials with the other people so that they can read it over imap or webmail etc.
