You’re right, I should give you definitions for namespaces. Here it is: namespace { inbox = no list = children location = maildir:/var/mail/%d/__public__/maildir/:LAYOUT=fs:INDEX=~/indexes/public/ prefix = "#Public/" separator = / subscriptions = no type = public } so, #Public (/var/mail/domainname/__public__) is the “root” of my namespace, “sys” is a folder inside #Public. Anyway, I’ve solved putting correct permissions in ACLs. One thing: I did not find anywhere informations about the necessity to put an ACL even on “root” of namespace. I’ve added a proper dovecot-acl file in /var/mail/domainname/__public__ and wverything started to work. Anyway, thanks again for your effort in deciphering my previous post :) and thanks for the great program dovecot is! Andre
