Hi, again.
1. Can somebody explain me about dovecot's shared mailboxes?

it)? What files is it looking for?

Hi,
I am running dovecot 1.2.11 on mac osx 1.5.8. Everything works
perfectly with the application-level firewall off, but enabling the
application firewall prevents dovecot connections. I have tried
explicitly authorizing dovecot in the firewall, but it does not work.

Thanks for the tip. I saw the section on converting from uw-imap, but
it's still not working. I still can not get to my mail folders, other
than INBOX. I think the problem goes back to Dovecot can't determine
the home directory?

Read up on namespace configuration some more.
Dovecot makes the sort of thing you're talking about very easy if you
familiarize yourself with namespaces first. It can overcome most of the
problems caused by historical poor choices in client configuration.

Use two hash functions and concatenate the hashes. While both hash systems may
eventually be hacked it is unlikely that hacking them will result in a targeted

1.1.x is getting old, and I've seen Timo comment many times that
upgrading to a current 1.2 or even 2.0 will likely fix problems like
this - so imo that would be the first things to try...

Hi David and all,

Sure. But be sure not to lose the indexes.
Does Dovecot support the use of the INDEX directive for mdbox?
