Home directory may also be used for other things, although mainly only
when Sieve is enabled.

I don't really know what to do about this. I don't think Dovecot should
waste time always checking that directories exist when it's not
necessary. Checking and preventing relative paths might be a
possibility, but I don't really want to break existing setups.

The improved error message will hopefully be enough for now. :)
