Installed dovcot from Debian .deb file. Creating a new account for
system users sets permission for user-only. Where to change initial
permissions on creation of mail folder and other subdirectories.
Installed dovecot using "apt-get install dovecot-imapd dovecot-pop3d".
Any time when I create a new account in my mail client for a system
user, Dovecot tries to create ~/mail/.imap/INBOX. The permissions for
mail and .imap are set to 0700. By this permissions INBOX can not be
created leading to an error message in log files. When I manualy change
the permissions to 0770, INBOX is created
