[Dovecot] Immutable Maildir (or: "I know drag&drop")
Hi,
I'm 'constantly' (every odd month) faced with users happily dragging around or (un)subscribing folders in our shared IMAP account. Is there a "clean" way to prevent users from doing that when having a Maildir?
Unix permissions probably won't cut the slack since setting any Maildir (sub)directory to readonly (immutable or chmod u-w ) will probably cause dovecot to hit a wall at high speed sooner or later (lock files, rotated cache/log files)
Got any other ideas?
best regards, Michael Renner

I suppose ACLs will help with this. At least for renaming, deleting and creating folders in the shared folder hierarchy. Dovecot should have ACL support within a month :)
I'm not sure about unsubscribing since IMAP ACLs don't support that. Perhaps I could add a Dovecot-specific extension for that..
