[Dovecot] share an IMAP folder ?
Hello
Is it possible to share an Imap folder for a user with another one ?
user a > imap-folder1 ^ user b >------|
Could user a share his folder "imap-folder1" with user b in readonly mode ?
I use "real" users ( not virtuals )
Thanks a lot.

Yes, in a shared namespace. Many of the popular MUAs do not have the ability for the user to actually share a folder, but will support reading them okay.

This is possible, we use this in combination with roundcube to share folders. Users log in to there webmail interface and can share there folder there. Thunderbird has an plugin also. But the most users use Microsoft Outlook, with has as far i know no option to create a share.
You can create this shared folders through namespaces.

Johan, How are your users sharing there folders in Roundcube? Are you running a plugin or is there native support that I'm just not seeing?
Thanks -Matt

Hi, Personal Settings -> Folder
But you have to allow the folders via ACL-file (dovecot-acl) see http://wiki.dovecot.org/ACL
