Summary:                    [patch] Addition of a Mailbox id facility to allow
shared mailboxes to work
Description: 
When a user is set up to share a mailbox using IMAP as the backing store
then messages posted into the mailbox are only visible to that user. For
example
with 2 users having the following voice mailbox definitions:

6000 => 6000,Shared mailbox,shared at example.com,,|imapuser=sharedmail
6001 => 6001,Shared mailbox,shared at example.com,,|imapuser=sharedmail

the voicemail is stored in a common folder and can be accessed via a mail
client as common data but each user receives just the messages that were
left for them.

I have implemented a patch against 1.4.21.2 which adds a new option
'imapmbxid' that allows all users to see all messages left for that mbxid.

This is used as follows.

6000 => 6000,Shared
mailbox,shared at example.com,,|imapuser=sharedmail,imapmbxid=6000
6001 => 6001,Shared
mailbox,shared at example.com,,|imapuser=sharedmail,imapmbxid=6000

and then when retrieving records the users are presented with all of the
records.

Apply patch 0013653 before this one to stop random crashes inside the UW
imap library.
