hi all,

I am trying to set up a virtual shared imap folder where every user can put spam messages not recognized by spamassassin, in order to use them periodically for sa-learn.

I followed the howto found at http://www.courier-mta.org/imap/?README.sharedfolders.html :

* added the following line to /usr/lib/courier-imap/etc/shared.tmp/index: [tab]spam@domain.com[tab]0[tab]0[tab]/home/vpopmail/domains/domain.com/spamuser[tab]

The first tab character doesn't belong there.

the tab at the beginning seems odd to me as well, but it complains about a syntax error w/o it... although it's exactly the format described in the howto. I also tried about any combination of quotes around the strings, spaces instead of tabs, ... with no luck.

/usr/lib/courier-imap/etc/shared/index(1): syntax error.

The reason it complaints about the syntax error is because uid and gid of zero are not valid. In this case, they need to match the actual ownership of /home/vpopmail/domains/domain.com/spamuser
