This does not work. I have this transport:
shared_local_delivery_mbx:
driver = appendfile
mbx_format = true
message_prefix =
message_suffix =
file = /var/mail/imapshared/$local_part/INBOX
delivery_date_add
envelope_to_add
return_path_add
mode = 0660
no_mode_fail_narrower
directory_mode = 755
group = ${lookup{$local_part}lsearch{/etc/mail/shared-mail}}
I have shared email get accepted by this router:
shared_mail:
driver = accept
user = imapshared
local_parts = lsearch;/etc/mail/shared-mail
group = ${lookup{$local_part}lsearch{/etc/mail/shared-mail}}
transport = shared_local_delivery_mbx
I create a test alias in /etc/mail/shared-mail that looks like this:
test: sysadm
So the group should by sysadm for everything.
I do a delivery to test and here is what I get:
[2484]root@florence# ls -la /var/mail/imapshared/test/
total 8
drwxr-xr-x 2 imapshared mail 512 Aug 12 07:36 .
drwxr-xr-x 7 imapshared mail 512 Aug 12 07:36 ..
-rw-rw---- 1 imapshared sysadm 3304 Aug 12 07:36 INBOX
I use exim-4.41 on FreeBSD 5.2.
