THis is completely correct. The access file is ONLY for the global-overall-uberuser :-) Everything else should be defined in the database itself :-)

Note that you could, pretty easily, write a new UserFolder type object which worked off an access file. Could be useful for people who are generating the access file from an /etc/passwd file, or whatever.

You could also skip the generation step and write a UserFolder which works off of /etc/passwd. In fact, NotMail could use this as a helper too. Michel
