Shared mailboxes nightmare (for me :-( )

[Felix Rubio]

Hi KR,

   Just checked the folders, and they do not contain any of these subfolders. This is the structure I see:

.
├── dovecot-acl-list
├── dovecot.list.index
├── dovecot.list.index.log
├── dovecot.list.index.log.2

└── subscriptions

Update: I have finally managed to see these folders in roundcube, after setting subscriptions=no (instead of yes) in the shared namespace. Also, I have been able to keep it working with the single dovecot-acl file I have inside mailboxes. Is this structure correct? I am asking becaus I have another user, for which I migrated the format to mdbox, for which I have these folders (curr, tmp, new) but also the structure I have for the shared :s. Are both formats mixed for that user?

Thank you,
Felix
