I have the same problem after upgrading to RC10. Did you find a solution?
Should I update to RC11 or rather downgrade back to an earlier version?
Thanks,

Hi,
On the weekend I tried to upgrade from RC7 to RC10. Clearly, I have to
change
some things before I can do this. What does it take to get to RC10?
As is, my mail client got an error trying to list messages in /INBOX (via
IMAP) and the mail.err log shows the following messages:
Oct 29 10:27:32 siona dovecot: IMAP(archangel):
open(/var/mail/archangel/inbox, O_CREAT) failed: Not a directory
Oct 29 10:27:32 siona dovecot: IMAP(archangel):
mkdir_parents(/var/mail/archangel/.imap/INBOX) failed: Not a directory
Oct 29 10:27:32 siona dovecot: IMAP(archangel): open() failed with
subscription file /var/mail/archangel/.subscriptions:
Not a directory
My dovecot.conf includes
default_mail_env = mbox:/var/mail/%u
And other then enabling SSL, I've got a pretty vanilla configuration (e.g.
nothing in the IMAP section at all, no odd namespaces...)
/var/mail/archangel is an mbox file, why is dovecot trying to open files
under
there?
I know at least part of the discussion has happened on the list before so
I'm
sorry for duplicating other questions. My TODO is about ten km long so I
hope someone can at least give me a couple good pointers.
Thanks in advance!
