Hi Kevin, You don't put anything into it by yourself.This file only helps Dovecot to lookup shares to prevent iterating through every users mailbox. When you create a share, Dovecot places a plain-text entry inside this file. When a user logs in, Dovecot asks its acl "database" in whose mail directory it should look for a share.
An entry could look like this: shared/shared-boxes/user/shared-for-u...@domain.tld/shared...@domain.tldYou don't have to put a .db ending to that file. You could name it shares.txt, too. Important: "file:".

Dear Andre, Thanks for yr reply. What do i include in the file shared-mailboxes.db ? As in the input. Is it really plain text ? So for example i write into the file shared-mailbox.db :- sha...@domain.net shar...@domain.net etc... Is it like that or what kind of syntax needs to be used?

You also need to have the correct permissions set. André Am 13.02.2015 um 04:59 schrieb Kevin Laurie: Hello,I need help. i am trying to configure shared in boxes.
