I just configured a Postfix + Courier IMAP server for an internal support queue with the intent that support@ email would be dumped into a common IMAP folder for us to use. I've run into problems with the Maildir permissions. I kludged around the delivery problem by adding a |chmod g+rw Maildir/.Folder/new/ to the .forward which makes this happen (does anyone have a better way of doing this?). The bigger problem I ran into was that messages which are copied into the folder retain the default permissions from their owner. Is there any way to have Courier adjust new messages so they will get the permissions of the parent directory?

Not right now. Currently, shared folders are not designed to be delivered to directly. Mail messages are moved into and out of shared folders via IMAP or webmail, which sets up all the permissions correctly.
