dovecot has sometimes had trouble with "~".  I use "%h" instead.  (I think there is a mention of this on one of the wiki pages.)
 I don't recall if I changed to "%h" because I was having trouble or because I wanted to avoid trouble.

Here's what I have:

mail_location = maildir:%h/Maildir

On disk, I have ~/Maildir/cur/ (and new/ and tmp/) for the Inbox.  I also have things like ~/Maildir/.Trash/cur/ (and new/ and
tmp/).
