Hi,
I'm having a problem I can't get my head around. I'm trying to setup a
public mailbox that is hidden from all users unless granted access through
an ACL.
My folder structure is (migrated from a Courier IMAP/Qmail server):
/var/spool/maildir - main public folder (contains a few .qmail files to
redirect mail to the correct subfolder)
/var/spool/maildir/Support - support public folder (a public folder rather
than a maildir)
/var/spool/maildir/Support/.SubFolder1 - support sub folder 1 (a maildir)
/var/spool/maildir/Support/.SubFolder2 - support sub folder 2 (another
maildir)
/var/spool/maildir/System
/var/spool/maildir/System/.SubFolder1
/var/spool/maildir/System/.SubFolder2
I couldn't get the namespace working correctly to just have 1 folder called
"Shared" (you just got an empty folder when trying to subscribe). I ended up
making 2 namespaces below:
namespace {
type = public
separator = .
prefix = Shared.Support.
location = maildir:/var/spool/maildir/Support:INDEX=~/Maildir/Support
subscriptions = no
}
namespace {
type = public
separator = .
prefix = Shared.System.
location = maildir:/var/spool/maildir/System:INDEX=~/Maildir/System
subscriptions = no
}
This allowed me to get the result I was looking for. Using an ACL I get a
Shared->Support/System->Subfolders view. However the problem is when a user
is not in the ACL they can still see the Shared->Support/System folders
(just none of the subfolders) and obviously can't subscribe.
Could someone let me know what I am doing wrong and if there is a better way
of doing this?
Many thanks,
Tom
