[Dovecot] Problems with Shared Mailbox

[Gerhard Schmidt]

Hi, 

i've installed dovecot on a new mailserverand try to set up some shared 
mailboxes. I have everiting up an runnig so far. 

I have 3 mboxes to be shared. 

I have use the following setup 

namespace private {
   separator =
   prefix =
   location =
   inbox = yes
   hidden = yes
}
namespace public {
  separator = /
  prefix = zentrale/
  location = mbox:/var/mail/shared:CONTROL=/var/mail/shared/.control:INDEX=/var/mail/shared/.index
}

the problem is with the dovecot.index files

[root at mailserv /var/mail/shared/.index]# ls -alR

-rw-rw----  1 dovecot  vhsal    648 May  7 13:51 dovecot.index.log

When the directory is setup like this everthing works as planed. But
sometimes (havn't quite figured when exactly the dovecot.index file of 
one of the Mailboxes is regenated with the false permissions set 

./.imap/Eingang:
total 38
drwxrwx---  2 dovecot  vhsal    512 May  7 13:53 .
drwxrwx---  5 dovecot  vhsal    512 May  7 13:49 ..
-rw-rw----  1 dovecot  vhsal      0 May  7 13:50 dovecot-shared
-rw-------  1 estartu  vhsal    376 May  7 13:53 dovecot.index
-rw-rw----  1 dovecot  vhsal  23552 May  7 13:53 dovecot.index.cache
-rw-rw----  1 dovecot  vhsal   7116 May  7 13:53 dovecot.index.log

How can I gate dovecot to set the permissions of this files to rw-rw---- 

I am using Dovecot v1.0.rc29
