[Dovecot] Shared Folters with LDA/Sieve
Hello,
i'm searching for a way to use Shared mailboxes with Sieve Filtering.
I need global email addresses like: info@foo.tld contact@foo.tld help@foo.tld
Every address with own Sieve-rules for filtering and sorting of incoming mails.
Now every user needs access to this folders, but how? How should i create the "global" addresses?
I already found http://wiki2.dovecot.org/SharedMailboxes/Public , but that's just a public namespace.
Is there any FAQ available for this?
Thank you very much Dieter

On my setup with an Active Directory LDAP backend i used Domain Groups for such email Adresses and configured the acl's in an way that members of the groups have full access to the group's imap folders via the shared (not the public) namespace. Since each group has normal imap account sieve rules can be applied as well. Guess you can use simple useraccounts for the mail accounts and share them for all authenticated users. Should be simpler.

IMHO, you should use: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/SharedMailboxes/Shared http://wiki2.dovecot.org/ACL
setup those three recipient as their own accounts with Sieve filter a.s.o. Then install ACLs to share to anyone - or create a group for all users.

Thanks again for the help. (after a long time)
But i still don't get this working :-(
I tried the way via mysql (http://wiki2.dovecot.org/SharedMailboxes/Shared) but nothing happens. I can't see (or subscribe) the shared folders.
I inserted (to the mysql table): from_user=info@foo.tld to_users=name@foo.tld
But the user name@foo.tld can't subscribe/see anything.
I added shared namespace to the config: namespace { type = shared separator = / prefix = shared/%%d/%%n/ location = maildir:%%h/Maildir:INDEX=~/Maildir/shared/%%u subscriptions = no list = children }
Not sure if this is the right way if i use virtual users: mail_location = maildir:/home/vmail/%d/%n:INDEX=/home/vmail-indexes/%d/%n:LAYOUT=fs namespace { type = private separator = / prefix = inbox = yes ...
Thanks!

Did you've read http://wiki2.dovecot.org/ACL ? The entry in the database is not the source of sharing information.
I added shared namespace to the config: namespace { type = shared separator = / prefix = shared/%%d/%%n/ location = maildir:%%h/Maildir:INDEX=~/Maildir/shared/%%u subscriptions = no list = children }
You have just copied the example into your config, haven't you? Do you get error messages about not finding the mailbox? You should enabled logging for testing: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Logging
Not sure if this is the right way if i use virtual users: mail_location = maildir:/home/vmail/%d/%n:INDEX=/home/vmail-indexes/%d/%n:LAYOUT=fs
In
the shared namespace you've configured Dovecot to look in the sharing user's home directory for Maildir, but the default location points to somewhere else, no Maildir at all. Where are the mailboxes located? IMHO, the correct location for most shared namespaces would be the location of the user with %'s doubled and INDEXes per user.
E.g. if above default mail_location is correct:
location = maildir:/home/vmail/%%d/%%n:INDEX=/home/vmail-indexes/%d/%n/shared/%%u:LAYOUT=fs
In a shared namespace %%u applies to the sharing user and %u to the current user, therefore that config defines the same as the default location, but with user-specific indexes, see http://wiki2.dovecot.org/IndexFiles if you prefer user-specific vs. mailbox-specific indexes.
namespace { type = private separator = / prefix = inbox = yes ...
Thanks!
