delete folders...

[Schmehl, Paul L]

I could have sworn I sent it to bugs@, but here it is:

# man cyradm (1)

Lines 58 & 59

"Administrators do not have implicit delete rights on mailboxes.  Use
the setaclmailbox command to grant the "d" permission to your principal
if you need to delete a mailbox you do not own."

(This is incorrect.  Administrators need the "c" ACL to delete mailbox
folders.)


Lines 145-147 

"c   Create and Delete mailbox (CREATE new sub-mailboxes, RENAME or
DELETE mailbox)

 d   Delete (STORE \DELETED, EXPUNGE)"


I'm running cyrus-imapd 2.1.9.  Perhaps it's been fixed?
