Benjamin's setup should make it possible, but that works only for the other users' INBOXes, and you do need that kludgy setup where users' maildirs begin with ".".
I was originally planning on making this easily possible for v1.1, but it got delayed. v1.2 maybe will support this setup, but for now only ugly kludges are possible.
With v1.1 you could perhaps implement this more easily if you use :LAYOUT=fs instead of Maildir++ layout..
I can't get this to work at all, nothing to subscribe to. I'm using version 1.0.3 though, could this be why?
Unless you're referring to ':LAYOUT=fs', it shouldn't be the issue. 1.0.3 is the version I used to test the kludgy method. Before, I tested directly (telnet localhost 143 and LIST "" "users/%" commands). And just now I confirmed that you can subscribe to users/(username) through Thunderbird. (But it still doesn't do much, since the permissions problems remain.)
Best, Ben I'm using gentoo also so we must have the same exact version. Something strange though, my configuration file uses a different syntax than yours. Instead of using colons for variables it expects equals. So when I copied and pasted your config I got this error:
Error: Error in configuration file /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf line 1: Expecting '=' Fatal: Invalid configuration in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
Why is this happening?
