what i don't get is the acl-setting, so that the master-user can access all the other users mails and folders. .. in my case I only want the master user (called cyrus) to be able to do everything with/in all mailboxes, so I made a file /etc/dovecot/acls/default that reads "user=cyrus lrwstipekxa".

Unfortunately currently there is no default ACL file. The above would create an ACL file for a mailbox called "default". I'll need to get the default ACLs implemented some day..

But if you don't need ACLs for anything else, you can simply disable the ACL plugin and the master user will have access to everything. If you do need ACLs, there are some kludges you can still do.
