For some odd reason, two of my users share the same Sent and Junk folders, therefore I keep getting errors about Sent folder reading permissions and one user reading the other user's Junk folder. What can I do about this odd problem?

Do you really think anyone can even guess what might cause something like this based on the information given?

How about some hints, like:

dovecot version, platform, output of dovecot -n, and maybe even - gasp - some log entries given when these users are experiencing the problem...

Dovecot version is 1.0.7, on Linux gentoo, below is dovecot -n

log_path: /var/log/dovecot.log info_log_path: /var/log/dovecot.log listen: [::] ssl_cert_file: /etc/ssl/dovecot/server.pem ssl_key_file: /etc/ssl/dovecot/server.key disable_plaintext_auth: no login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable: /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap-login mail_extra_groups: mail mail_location: mbox:/var/mail/:INBOX=/var/mail/%u:INDEX=/var/mail/folders/%u

Here you need something like mbox:/var/mail/%u/ or mbox:/var/%u/mail/ to keep all the users other mailboxes separate.

I did like you said, and now I get IMAP(tolga): open() failed with subscription file /var/mail/tolga/.subscriptions: Not a directory. btw, /var/mail/tolga is a file, but what I want is to have all the other folders in /var/mail/folders/tolga. Should I modify it like mbox:/var/mail/folders/%u/ ?

That should work. It indeed work, thanks :)
