Hello,

I'm trying to set up a public mailbox where users can receive
notifications out of. I'm not getting any errors from Dovecot 2.1, but
nothing is showing up in my user's web clients. In each
/home/vmail/public/mailbox folder right now I just have one called
testbox I have a dovecot-acl file with:

user=testuser1 lr
user=user1 lr

etc.

I'd appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks.
Dave.
