Hi,

the layout in the public namespace is supposed to be in maildir flavour.
/home/public/.resumes

So your shared folder should be called '.resumes' without a 'Maildir'  
subdirectory in it. Instead of the file 'dovecot-acl-list' use  
'dovecot-acl' inside that folder. The list ACL file 'dovecot-acl-list'  
is then automatically created in the root directory.
