[Dovecot] Dovecot ACLs
Running Dovecot 1.1.8 using Virtual users, multiple domains.
My file structure is /var/spool/mail/<domain>/<user>/Maildir/ (cur, new,tmp,.Spam)
What I'd like to do is add an ACL such that all users can read/delete/move mail that's in the spam folder, but not delete it. Am I going to have to create an entry for every single user, or is there a way to do it once, for all .Spam folders?
I've read through http://wiki.dovecot.org/ACL and can't quite get this as the last step.
Thanks

See the section about global ACLs.

Apologies, but I did (several times), and still don't find the answer to my question.
I can't seem to make the relationship in the wiki between the user permissions, and the actual folder location. And it doesn't speak to whether I can resolve this for a global setting (all /var/spool/mail/*/*/.Spam) folders.
thx

Hmm. I'm not really sure how to explain it better than it currently is
there. I changed the initial wording now, but .. what was the most
difficult thing to understand there and how could it be improved?

acl = vfile:/etc/dovecot/acls
Then create /etc/dovecot/acls/Spam file, which is in the same format
as dovecot-acl files. Set up the wanted permissions for "owner".
