Hi,

i want to send mails direct into a public folder. If i send an email via my local postfix the mail will be handled as a normal private mail. Dovecot does create a mailbox in the private Namespace and do use not the mailbox in public one.

I hope you can help me with my little problem.

Here sone informations about my configuration:

[root@imap1 etc]# ls -la /var/dovecot/imap/public/ insgesamt 16 drwxr-x--- 3 vmail vmail 4096 19. Jan 10:12 . drwxr-x--- 5 vmail vmail 4096 18. Jan 08:41 .. -rw-r----- 1 vmail vmail 0 19. Jan 10:11 dovecot-acl-list -rw-r----- 1 vmail vmail 8 19. Jan 10:12 dovecot-uidvalidity -r--r--r-- 1 vmail vmail 0 19. Jan 10:12 dovecot-uidvalidity.4f17de84 drwx------ 5 vmail vmail 4096 19. Jan 10:12 .hrztest

and here is me configuration:
