We have no problems with Eudora support of shared folders on Cyrus
IMAP. Cyrus appears to use the "Complete Heirarchy" namespace model
(as defined in RFC-2342) which Eudora is quite happy with. Eudora
does not directly support shared folders with IMAP servers that use
the "Personal Mailbox" model, such as Stalker Communigate Pro.
(However, Eudora doesn't support ACL management - we have to do this
with a separate Web interface)
