Cyrus IMAP Shared Folders in MS Outlook vs Outlook Express

by programm . Updated 18 years, 5 months ago

Hi,

I’m using Cyrus IMAP on my email server, and
I’m trying to figure out how to see IMAP Shared Folders ( I think it’s how they’re called ) when using MS Outlook.

For example :

I have accounts Jane and Boss .
I have set up in cyradm that Boss can see
all Jane’s folders ( something like : “sam user.Jane Boss All” ).

In Outlook Express I can set ( in IMAP ) main folder as “user.” and Sent elements as “Boss.Sent” etc ( well, it can be done only by regedit because you can’t set dot in that field, but that’s not the point ).
And then all Jane’s subfolders are listed in Bosses IMAP Folders …
It looks like :
Boss
-Inbox
-Sent
-Drafts
-MySubFolder
-MySubSubFolder

Jane Inbox
-Sent
-Drafts

But I can’t figure out how I can achieve this in MS Outlook ( currently 2007 ) .
If I put “user.” in Main IMAP folder, I can see It like this :

Inbox ( Boss )

Jane
-Sent
-Drafts

And I can’t even see my Sent Folder or any Subfolders. If I put “user.Boss” I can see all my subfolders, but I can’t see any of Jane’s ..

Is there a way out to set up MS Outlook like Outlook Express? Or do I have to mess with Cyrus?

Thanks
Kuba
