Set the mailbox ACL to 'anyone p' for submailboxes that are available
for direct delivery.
There is at least one MUA (Mulberry -
http://www.cyrusoft.com/) that
understands Cyrus ACLs and provides a dialog to edit the ACLS on mailboxes.
I don't know whether any of the web mail applications have Cyrus ACL
support; but if not, it really shouldn't be at all difficult to set
up a secure web page to do ACL modifications. A CGI script using the
Cyrus::IMAP perl module should be pretty straight-forward.
Using per-mailbox ACLs means that it is still possible for a user to
prevent direct delivery to some mailboxes and allow it to others.
