Timo,
  The user can't access the mailbox directly under normal use
circumstances.  He doesn't have a smb share setup to allow him access
to the mbox file.  As far as I know, the only program besides dovecot
doing editing of the mail is spamassassin, but that happens before the
mail is written to the mbox.  Perhaps I am misunderstanding your
question?
