I've run into an interesting thing. If a mailbox has been shared to a second
user (I'll call it the sharee), and there are subfolders on that mailbox, and
the sharee renames one of those subfolders, it disappears from view to the
sharee. The only way I've been able discover to fix it is to have the sharee
create a new subfolder -- then the renamed folder shows up again; in addition
to the newly created folder.
For example, fi...@example.org shares it's INBOX to sec...@example.org.
There's a folder INBOX/thing, which second@ renames to INBOX/renamed (ACLs
permitting). second@ can no longer can see INBOX/renamed (or INBOX/thing for
that matter), via IMAP's LIST command. But if second@ creates a new folder
INBOX/other, INBOX/renamed is now visible.
This is very reproducible for me. I also tried it without the imappostlogin
bit (in the dovecot -n). Anyone else run into this?
No NFS is involved, this is a single machine setup.
