[Dovecot] Variables in LDAP userdb

Hi Timo,

Is it OK to have dovecot variables in entries in an LDAP userdb? Say I 
wanted to set the mail userdb parameter to override mail_location, would 
it work by having an entry in LDAP (eg for mailMessageStore attrib) like:

mdbox:/home/email/%d/%n:INDEX=/home/indexes/%d/%1n/%n:ALT=/home/email_archive/%d/%1n/%n

and those % variables will still be expanded by dovecot? Or would I be 
required to replace them in the LDAP directory with their actual values?

Cheers

Alex
