[Dovecot] Connecting to dovecot

We have home directories on the server.  Virtual user's can login (at least I've been able to verify that from using telnet to port 143).  Yes the earlier mail was different.  I can go back to that configuration if I need to.  Meanwhile I'll take a look at the link you sent.  Thank you!

I'm not sure how well that is going to work. You might need some sort of home 
directory, but your earlier conf had mail location and home directory pointing 
to the same place. That location can't be a directory AND a file.

Do users have home directories on this server or is it all virtual?

Maybe this has more clues;
