Hi Christophe;
OK, so I will have a look on the shared mailbox
Concerning the Public one, there is something I don't understand . Into the exemple :https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/shared_mailboxes/public_shared/...
The public folder is : /var/mail/public
How to receive emails into this folder ? how can I say that any emails from "info@foo.com" should arrive into this folder ? unless I misunderstood the use of this public mailbox?
With the shared mailbox.. OK fine.. This is an account were is attached some email addresses and visible by others.. but here... if /var/mail/public is attached to an email address, this is a shared mailbox ?? I am confused
=================
Hi Michael,
it's simply easier to use a shared mailbox, because it shows up in you own folder pane and you don't have to switch between different user-accounts.
Dovecot has built in mechanisms for shared and public mailboxes (https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/shared_mailboxes/) - so why not use it?
Cheers Christoph.

Curious, what is the use case that you simply can't create three > users, and share the password on on of the email accounts?
They can simply set up their email clients to check both mailboxes, > why would this not work, and what is the use case that requires > customizing your MTA?
