INBOX sharing does not work

18 Aug 2020


      Hello!
INBOX sharing does not seem to work, although all other mailboxes work.
User bar@example.de has shared a few mailboxes:
# doveadm acl get -u bar@example.de INBOX
ID                  Global Rights
user=foo@example.de        lookup read write-seen
# doveadm acl get -u bar@example.de Sent
ID                  Global Rights
user=foo@example.de        lookup read write-seen
# doveadm acl get -u bar@example.de Drafts
ID                  Global Rights
user=foo@example.de        lookup read write-seen
But user foo@example.de can't see the shared INBOX:
# doveadm mailbox list -u foo@example.de
Trash
Sent
Drafts
Junk
shared
shared/bar@example.de
shared/bar@example.de/Sent
shared/bar@example.de/Drafts
INBOX
A review of the ACL does not explain the behaviour:
# doveadm acl debug -u foo@example.de shared/bar@example.de/INBOX
doveadm(foo@example.de): Info: Mailbox 'INBOX' is in namespace
'shared/bar@example.de/'
doveadm(foo@example.de): Info: Mailbox path:
/srv/mail-storage/mailhome/example.de/bar/Maildir
doveadm(foo@example.de): Info: Per-user private flags in mailbox: \Seen
doveadm(foo@example.de): Info: User foo@example.de has rights: lookup
read write-seen
doveadm(foo@example.de): Info: Mailbox found from dovecot-acl-list
doveadm(foo@example.de): Info: User bar@example.de found from ACL
shared dict
doveadm(foo@example.de): Info: Mailbox shared/bar@example.de/INBOX is

I don't think it is relevant, but I don't want to forget to mention that
/srv/mail-storage/ is an NFS share.
It would bee nice if someone has a hint. I hope it isn't a bug.
