This is somewhat of a moot point - the addition of maildir: breaks maildrop:

Mar 11 17:35:36 monica postfix/pipe[25561]: 10E29804B4: to=<test at sharp.fm>, relay=maildrop, delay=0.21, delays=0.15/0.02/0/0.03, dsn=4.3.0, status
=deferred (temporary failure. Command output: /usr/bin/maildrop: Unable to change to home directory. )

Is there a way to get dovecot autocreate to work without fiddling with the paths? For example, declare a global maildir default?

Graham
