For example, you can have public mailboxes that you can only read but cannot write into, or a shared mailbox where you can also do only some things your co-worker give you the rights to do via some ACL. So possibly some mailboxes won't have PERMANENTFLAGS. Dovecot has some capabilities to make such setup with different namespaces and all. I'm rather sure it still *can* allow PERMANENTFLAGS almost everywhere (public, shared, private mailboxes), but well, in theory you can't be sure. =2D-=20 Julien Danjou // =E1=90=B0 http://julien.danjou.info --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAkyPz6gACgkQpGK1HsL+5c3prgCeO/BrbZSWNw6ABI+MmWvBDO0a ZREAoIbZNoMKahQRnP0Wru9whGO8kS1l =P6m9 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=--
