It doesn't show anything until there are shared mailboxes. Are there any?
How do I setup these, symlinks ? Or is it in the acl ?
What do you need shared mailboxes for? Perhaps you don't really need user-shared mailboxes, but rather public mailboxes that are much easier to support with system users? http://wiki.dovecot.org/SharedMailboxes
The user-shared mailboxes are meant to be shared by using IMAP SETACL command. For example:
1 SETACL mailbox username +lr
Should I put some file(s) is the users Maildir directory ?
I'm not sure how well the shared mailbox support works with system users, or how well it will ever work. You're going to have permission problems. You could create dovecot-shared files with proper permissions, but that file isn't automatically created by SETACL command and I'm not really sure if it even should.
This means that you only tested it with a virtual user setup ?
Yes, because getting it to work with system users isn't that simple because of all the extra problems related to filesystem permissions.
