Create a separated mailbox for archived mails

[Claudio Corvino]

Hi,

I have an MTA configured with Postfix that deliver email to an IMAP/LMTP 
Dovecot server version 2.3.4.1 configured to bind LDAP/AD for users.

I would like to configure Dovecot to create another mailbox to archive 
mails of users to a separated NFS mount.

Here is my /dovecot-ldap.conf/:

[...]

/ldap_version=3//
//auth_bind = yes//
//dn = XXX//
//dnpass = XXX//
//scope = subtree//
//user_attrs = 
sAMAccountName=home=/mnt/mail-storage-dev/%$,=uid=501,=gid=501//
//pass_attrs = sAMAccountName=user//
//user_filter = (&(objectclass=person)(samaccountname=%n))//
//pass_filter= (&(objectclass=person)(samaccountname=%n))/

[...]

I think I will add another conf file, let's say 
/dovecot-ldap-archive.conf /using "url" as LDAP/AD filed to distinguish 
from normal users:

[...]

/ldap_version=3//
//auth_bind = yes//
//dn = XXX//
//dnpass = XXX//
//scope = subtree//
//user_attrs = url=home=/mnt/mail-storage-archive/%$,=uid=501,=gid=501//
//pass_attrs = url=user//
//user_filter = (&(objectclass=person)(url=%n))//
//pass_filter= (&(objectclass=person)(url=%n))/

[...]

I then added to "test" user a "url" filed into Active Directory named 
/test-archive//, b/ut it's not working, when I bind Dovecot with:

/doveadm user test-archive/

I receive:

/field    value//
//userdb lookup: user test-archive doesn't exist/

With test user it works:

/doveadm user test//
//field    value//
//uid    501//
//gid    501//
//home    /mnt/mail-storage-dev/test//
//mail    maildir:~/Maildir:INDEX=/var/indexes/test/

What I'm doing wrong?

Thanks in advance!
