Assuming you have a sys/ namespace prefix for a public namespace, then I guess this fails because the default ACL prevents all accesses. > but if I do: > > # doveadm mailbox create -u __public__ test > > every thing is OK. And this works because "" is a private namespace and its default ACL gives admin access. > “sys" is a shared maildir folder, that is visible in the client as > "#Public/sys”. Shouldn't you have used "#Public/sys/test" as the mailbox name then? > __public__ is the user that owns Public folders, here is the complete details: > > userdb: __public__ > uid : 10002 > gid : 8 > home : /var/mail/domainname/__public__ > mail : > maildir:~/maildir:INBOX=~/maildir/INBOX:LAYOUT=fs:INDEX=~/indexes/ This doesn't really tell me what mailboxes other people then see. The same __public__/maildir/ is the other users' #Public/sys/ namespace? Then shouldn't it work if you just create "test" and it shows up to others as #Public/sys/test? Anyway .. dovecot -n output would have been helpful. I've done too much guessing above. > Do I have to add root with proper permissions to ACL? No.
