Never done shared/public folders but perhaps Debug mode will give a hint.

HI,

I would deeply aprechiate if someone here could help me address a problem with ACL. I would personally refrain from e-mailing ever so often as I understand other users have more important issues to discuss about. Anyways I hope someone here could help.

When I run ;-

 doveadm acl get -A Public/Archive

I keep getting an error that says Mailbox does not exist . See erorr message below : -

Error: Can't open mailbox Public/Archive: Mailbox doesn't exist: Public/Archive

In the fastmail folder there is a folder called Archive, why isn't it being read?  The folder is drwxr-xr-x. with vmail as owner.

Deeply appreciate if someone could help with this.

Many  thanks
