I have some problems with setting shared mailboxes . I use dovecot 1.2.11 with following namespaces :
mail_location: maildir:~
namespace: type: private separator: . inbox: yes list: yes subscriptions: yes namespace: type: private separator: . prefix: INBOX. hidden: yes list: no subscriptions: yes namespace: type: shared separator: . prefix: shared.%%n. location: maildir:/home/sites/%d/mail/%%n/Maildir/ list: children
plugin: acl: vfile acl_shared_dict: proxy::acl
dict: acl: mysql:/usr/local/etc/dovecot-share-sql.conf
In the private namespace I use to have only INBOX. space because I have migrate from courier and I ahave problemes with duplicate folders.
The disk structure looks like : /home/sites/domain.tld/mail/user(withoutdomain)/Maildir
What I'am trying to do is to give access to a user (user2@domain.tld) some other user mailbox (user1@domain.tld).
in the /home/sites/domain.tld/mail/user1/Maildir I have created a file dovecot-acl with :
owner lrwstipekxa user=user2@domain.tld rl
- in the dovecot-share-sql.conf I have :
connect = host=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock dbname=xxxx user=xxx password=postfixpass map { pattern = shared/shared-boxes/user/$to/$from table = user_shares value_field = dummy
fields {
from_user = $from
to_user = $to
}}
and in the user_share table :
+-------------------+------------------+-------+ | from_user | to_user | dummy | +-------------------+------------------+-------+ | user1@myhost.ro | user2@domain.tld | 1 | | user1 | user2 | 1 | +-------------------+------------------+-------+
(not sure what I need %n or %u)
Now , in TB under the user2 , if I check subscribe , under the shared, I have a INBOX folder that is always check but nothing else. From what I understand I suppose to see user1 folders and I think it is something wrong with my config (namespaces, paths).
If someone have succeeded to configure dovecot with shared mailboxes and namespaces that use . as separator please help me.
Alex.
