Hi Phil Have you taken a look at dovecot’s namespaces? https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/shared_mailboxes/public_shared/
No idea personally, just searched for it now based on your question. When you mention chattr I assume you’re referring to setting the immutable bit / flag eg. https://www.tecmint.com/chattr-command-examples/amp/ Only reason I can off the top of my head think this wouldn’t work is that the file system type you’re using doesn’t support it. A third option would be to dual mount the file system, second time in readonly mode and use a second instance of dovecot to point at the second location... just a tad yuck Phillip On Tuesday, May 17, 2022, Philip Rhoades <p...@pricom.com.au> wrote: > People, > > I can't get the system "chattr" to do what I want so I am wondering if > there is some way to prevent deletion of mails in the INBOX and the Sent > folders? > > Renaming and moving files needs to be possible for Maildir functions and > also for me - so I only need deletion prevention . . > > Is this possible from Dovecot? > > Thanks, > > Phil. > -- > Philip Rhoades > > PO Box 896 > Cowra NSW 2794 > Australia > E-mail: p...@pricom.com.au >
