Hi,

I'm using:

default_mail_env = maildir:/var/imap/%n/Maildir:INDEX=/var/imap/%n/index

I like the extra Maildir-subdir to have the dovecot-index outside of it
but that's just my personal taste. :)

Why do you want to have your mails split over two locations and two
different formats (Maildir/mbox)?
