I've setup shared mailbox using examples from "Managing IMAP" book. It works, except that I have no idea how to append messages to this mailbox.

I've created the mailbox as follows:

localhost> cm user.foo
localhost> cm user.foo.bar
localhost> sam user.foo.bar anyone lr
localhost> sam user.foo.bar someuser p

Using Mozilla Thunderbird (properties->sharing), I can see that I have read, lookup and post rights on user.foo.bar mailbox when I'm logged in as someuser. But, how to actually post anything into that mailbox?

If I just send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (with [EMAIL PROTECTED]), the message ends up in user.foo, not in user.foo.bar. I'd kind of expected this (sender's address is easlly forged, so it wouldn't make sense to use it for this purpose).

If I try to select a message from my mailbox and copy it over to user.foo.bar using Thunderbird's "Copy To" menu command, it doesn't work either. Thunderbird displays folders up to user.foo, and than it presents me with empty list of folders (it doesn't even displays user.foo.bar). Drag&Drop doesn't work either. And there's no option of composing the message directly into user.foo.bar.

Is this bug in Thuderbird, or are things supposed to work in some different way? How?
