Mailinabox: Mail-in-a-box should support Shared Mailboxes

[franklouwers]

Hi,

Are there any plans to support shared mailboxes? It seems not that hard to do in Dovecot: http://wiki.dovecot.org/SharedMailboxes

[yeah]

I'd vote no, because a shared mailbox is almost always just a workaround for a proper help desk or ticketing system – none of which MIAB tries to be afaik.

I'm not sure https://wiki.dovecot.org/SharedMailboxes/Shared meets my definition of "not that hard". :)

You could try it out on your host. Just save your changes before upgrading mail-in-a-box. If it works and is useful, submit a PR!

Personally, I've never seen shared mailboxes work for more than a few months in practice... they seem to create more communications issues than they solve.

I'm pushing back on any new feature requests. This project is complicated enough as it is. :)
