Hi all,

I've tried to contact Timo Sirainen by dovecot irc channel but since I couldn't I'm trying the mailinglist.

I'm trying to create shared virtual folders, users should not be able either to create or delete a virtual folder. What is the best way to do this?

I've tried to do this with virtual mailboxes, but I had problems with permissions, I removed write permissions from folder "virtual_folders" but if I do that dovecot creates "virtual_folders_indexes" without write permissions too, which in this case are needed. I've tried to solve this using ACL but as far as I understood I need an ACL file per folder, which in my case is undoable.

Thanks,

Daniela Silva
