Unfortunately currently there is no default ACL file. The above would
create an ACL file for a mailbox called "default". I'll need to get the
default ACLs implemented some day..

But if you don't need ACLs for anything else, you can simply disable the
ACL plugin and the master user will have access to everything. If you do
need ACLs, there are some kludges you can still do.
