[Dovecot] Migrating to Maildir -> path

[Andy Shellam]

Hi Wouter,

We do this already, whereby mail is stored like, for user at domain.com, in 
/some/path/domain.com/user.  The paths are stored in a virtual user 
database in PostgreSQL which Dovecot authenticates against.  And yes, 
/Maildir is redundant, unless you plan on storing any non-mail stuff in 
the same user directories (e.g. web pages or something.)

Andy.
