A number of our users would greatly benefit from truly shareable mail folders. I know we can bodge this with symlinks, but mailbox corruptions seem to occur when simultaneous updates are made, but this may be a client issue I guess. So I wonder if true shareability is creeping up the agenda. By true shareability, I mean such that if two users have the same folder open and one of them makes a modification to it, the display of that folder on the other user's screen immediately reflects that change. I guess this may well require a co-operating client...
Cheers, Terry

Most clients suck at co-operating. Dovecot tells them about flag changes and other changes immediately, but most clients just ignore those.
