So this is /var/mail/%u/Maildir template.

You can replace this with:

location = maildir:/%%u/Maildir:INDEX=~/Maildir/shared/%%u

Although if this is used outside chroot (e.g. lmtp, doveadm) it won't
work correctly..

This is done because you used %%h, to look up home directory from
userdb. If you don't use %%h, it's not done.
