[Dovecot] support for UW-style mbox

[Rich West]

I'm not sure if I follow you, but it sounds like you want a copy of all
of the mail to reside in both /var/spool/mail/<user> and in ~user/mbox. 
However, since that seems pretty odd, I'll guess (and probably guess
badly) that you really didn't want to use /var/spool/mail at all

To have all delivery go to ~user/mbox, you can set the default_mail_env
variable in /etc/dovecot.conf as follows:
default_mail_env = mbox:~/:INBOX=%h/mbox:INDEX=%h/.imap_index

(the INDEX part is optional, but helpful.)
