set read/unread flags independently

[oc1]

hi all

we are testing zimbra and found a last decision criterion. is there a way to share email folder access in a way that every user has his own read/unread flags?

example: a usere move a readed email in a shared folder. for this user, the flag is set on read. the other users should seen this email unread.

we tried something like:

sudo ./zmmailbox -z -m test@domain.com mfg /client account test2@domain.com riw

thanks a lot for hints

Hey,

we are facing the same problem now.

Are there any solutions to this?

yes, please vote because the fix date is a long way off

This is beginning to pinch us as well. Sure hope this gets pegged to a release sometime in the not so distant future.....

I suppose it's a basic technically problem!
It's not just a simple bug fixing.

The other option would be to just setup a distribution list to deliver the messages to each user and setup filters. Then, each user has their own read/unread flag and they can delete messages that don't apply to them, etc. as well.

And if I want to have a complex folder structure shared with other users?

Then obviously that's not a solution that's applicable to you.

As mmorse says, vote for that bug!

I've been told that this issue is targeted for 6.5, but that release has not been scheduled yet, and probably won't be for quite a while.
