Hello List,

i just want to ask why the flags for deleting a mailbox are not splitted from the flag to create a sub-mailbox.

Its because the original ACL extension (RFC 2086) was vague on which right controlled DELETE. Some implementations like Cyrus tie it to the 'c' (CREATE) right. Others tie it to the 'd' (set \Deleted flag on messages) right.


There is an update to RFC 2086 which is currently being worked on in the imapext WG that has separate rights for all of these. As soon as the draft is stabilized, we will go ahead and implement it.
