Hi at all, there is a bug in in acl_defaults_from_inbox option: if you define it with ANY value ('yes', 'no', 'whatyouwant', 'xxx') it acts like the value is ALWAYS 'yes', and Dovecot enable it; the only way to disable it, is comment it or delete from configuration file.

With 'acl_defaults_from_inbox = no', or 'acl_defaults_from_inbox = whatyouwant', all my folders get ACLs from INBOX; in my case I want to only share INBOX, but also all other folders were shared.

When you comment 'acl_defaults_from_inbox', Dovecot works like expected.
