Hiya,

We finally got shared folders kind of working, the "Accessing shared folders" section in http://www.inter7.com/courierimap/README.sharedfolders.html needs to be rewritten from scratch. No offence. A real-life example showing the setup for user A and user B would help a lot :-)

But we're stuck on a different issue, not a critical one but it's sure to cause some confusion if we roll it into production. In Outlook Express, this is what a user would see:

my.server.name +- Inbox +- Shared +- UserA +- SharedFolderA +- UserB +- SharedFolderB

Now, if he clicks on "Shared", "UserA" or "UserB" he gets an error message: "Could not select 'foldername' on the IMAP server. You might try refreshing your folder list to synchronize with the IMAP server." and "Invalid mailbox".

File a bug report with Microsoft. Those hierarchy entries have a \Noselect flag, but their crapware is ignoring it, and tries to open them nevertheless.

From where I'm sitting, atleast "UserA" and "UserB" are valid maildirs. Is

No, those entries do not represent maildirs, but locations of sharable folders.
