You lost me again : what's the use of the userdb " acl_groups" extra-field then ?
That only adds user to given ACL groups for ACL plugin's checks. ACL plugin deals only with virtual permissions, acl_groups has nothing to do with filesystem permissions. If user doesn't already have enough filesystem permissions to access some mailbox, ACL plugin won't grant them either.
Ok.
So basically, independently of ACL groups, the idea is to
. chgrp all maildirs to some unix group (doveshared)
. chmod 0770 those maildirs
. add that group to mail_extra_groups
. so dovecot would be able to access any shared mailboxes (from anyone to anyone)
correct ?
