Hi,
I’m using Dovecot 2.3.21.1. I have mailboxes for the family members and some 
shared mailboxes, all of them available with IMAP protocol. Users are 
authenticating using PAM, and shared mailboxes appear as sub-folders of user 
accounts.
Because it is easier to use with some clients, I’m looking for a way to use the 
shared mailboxes as independent accounts. This would mean that, on a client, I 
would like to create an account to access to `family@mydomain`, but using my 
own username and password.
I thought of a way to do this by tricking the password, setting it, for 
example, to `myname+mysecretpassword`, then split it in dovecot configuration 
in order to override the username and password. But not only didn’t I found a 
way to split the string, but also, if I understand correctly, setting another 
user to PAM module will override the name of the mailbox I want to open.
What would you suggest me to do in order to get this desired behavior?
Thank you.
