[Dovecot] Access to the root of a shared mailbox
I have an issue with shares mailboxes
Example : I have 2 users A and B. A must have an access to all mail of B So i create a public namespace
namespace public { separator = / prefix = Public/ location = maildir:/home/users/B/Maildir }
It's OK for the subfolders, but not for the root (B's inbox, the most
important !)
it's seems to be like

it's the only feature that prevents me to migrate from Courier-IMAP !

It's kind of a kludge to use namespaces like that to share another user's mailboxes. But you should be able to work around this by:
cd /home/users/B/Maildir ln -s . .INBOX
Then you'll have Public/INBOX.

Thanks, it's work well.
For me, namespaces is the only solution to share a mailbox to many
people (without having multiple imap accounts on each mail client)
Is there others solutions ?
