I was not able to get a shared mailbox setup working using imapc. 
Tested using mailboxes on the same server, as well as other servers.
We are using dovecot 2.2.10 from Centos 7, following the guide at 
http://wiki2.dovecot.org/SharedMailboxes/ClusterSetup

imapc_host=192.168.5.5 #(Local dovecot server)
imapc_master_user= %u
imapc_password=TempPass
#imapc_user=te...@example.com # Added for testing.
namespace {
  type = shared
  separator = /
  prefix = shared/%%u/
  list = children
  location = imapc:~/shared/%%u/
}
namespace { # used as a control to verify that shared mailboxes work
  type = shared
  separator = /
  prefix = shared2/%%u/
  list = children
  location = sdbox:%%h:INDEXPVT=~/shared2/%%u
}


dict {
  acl = mysql:/etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql_aggelos_shares.conf.ext
}

plugin {
  acl = vfile
  acl_shared_dict = proxy::acl
}

mail_plugins = acl

protocol imap {
  mail_plugins = acl imap_acl
}

passdb {
  driver = sql
  args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext
}


passdb { # for master user logins
  driver = sql
  args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql_aggelos_aclmaster.conf.ext
  master = yes
  pass = yes
}

userdb {
  driver = sql
  args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext
}





I can login using te...@example.com*t...@example.com (and see all of test2's email), and it looks like it authenticates ok via imap, but shared never shows up. No issues using shared2 which uses direct access to the mailbox

It feels like the acl information in the vfiles is not available when using imapc.


Our setup is as follows: (Currently does not use Dovecot Director, but has the same issues where shared mailboxes may not be local on the server)
* Front servers, that are running dovecot (proxy to backend servers)
* Backend Servers, each handle their own local users.


Thank you

Adding to this, Is it possible to set the location for the VFile's when 
using imapc?  If so, I believe that would allow this to work. (Available 
over NFS [later GFS2] on remote servers,  Technically we could also use 
the storage directly but I was concerned about 2 dovecot processes on 
different servers using the same sdbox storage location).
