Hi Timo,

like set Virtual POP3 INBOX

namespace default {

type = private

separator = / prefix = "" list = yes

hidden = no

subscriptions = yes }

namespace virtual {

type = private

prefix = "virtual/" separator = /

location = virtual:/etc/dovecot/virtual:LAYOUT=maildir++

location = virtual:/etc/dovecot/virtual hidden = yes list = no subscriptions= no }

namespace real {

type = private

prefix = "RealMails/" separator = / list = no hidden = yes }

namespace { type = shared separator = /

Mailboxes are visible under "shared/user@domain/"

%%n, %%d and %%u are expanded to the destination user.

prefix = "shared/%%u/" #prefix = "shared/%%d/%%u/"

Mail location for other users' mailboxes. Note that %variables and ~/

expands to the logged in user's data. %%n, %%d, %%u and %%h expand

to the

destination user's data.

#location = maildir:/usr/local/virtual/%d/%%u/:INDEX=~/shared/%%d/%%u/ location = maildir:/usr/local/virtual/%%d/%%u/:INDEX=~/shared/%%d/%%u/

#Use the default namespace for saving subscriptions. subscriptions = no

List the shared/ namespace only if there are visible shared mailboxes.

list = children inbox = no }

/etc/dovecot/virtual/INBOX/dovecot-virtual
