At my company I create IMAP "SHARED" folders.  Only a script has write
access to these folders.  We stuff company bulletins,  and other stuff in
these folders.  Since the folders are setup as read only, then nobody can
modify them.  The only user that can write to these is a special user
account that uses a procmail recipe to route the email, which usually has
an attachment, to the proper Maildir folder.  Thus an email addressed to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject line of "Bulletin" will  route the
message to the Shared "Bulletins" folder or a subject line of "Insurance
Info" to the Insurance folder etc.  How to setup IMAP shared folders
depends on the IMAP implementation.

Hope this was even close to being useful.
