Really sorry for having occasioned so much trouble...
As a miserable attempt to diminish my culpability: since various pages  
in the wiki explicitely mention the use of ACLs with the mbox format  
and the CONTROL setting, I first thought in all innocence that I was  
doing something wrong, then tended to believe that some slight glitch  
had been introduced with 1.2, and then...

That said, I really think it's a great thing to keep the mbox format  
on a par with the other ones[1].
Even if, of course, it comes with its limitations.

So, once again, many thanks.
Axel
