Thanks, it's working well with
mail_location = maildir:/var/alternc/mail/%1u/%n_%d/Maildir
But, for some users logging with name_domain the directory which is created is not correct and look like
/var/alternc/mail/d/denis_collectifs.net_
I can't see how it's doing that, given you have told it where to put the underscore. Is there any reason you can't use /var/alternc/mail/collectifs.net/d/denis format? Do you need underscores?
Yes, because it comes from the hosting control/ panel Alternc http://www.alternc.org
I am trying to use dovecot in place of courrier /
Is it a way to transform a login with _ like denis_collectifs.net to denis@collectifs.net to have a the mail_location correct ?
I can't recall if you mentioned earlier what MTA you are using, our setup uses postfix/dovecot/mysql How are you storing your users/auth ? Perhaps using my suggestion above will work better? just adjust your database query to match
In my /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf, i use user_query = SELECT path, 33 AS uid, uid AS gid FROM mail_users WHERE alias = '%u'
The user can be denis_collectifs.net or denis@collectifs.net and the path is always like this /var/alternc/mail/d/denis_collectifs.net (the Maildir is created by an script)
If i set mail_location = maildir:/var/alternc/mail/%1u/%u/Maildir
The problem is that dovecot creates (when you log in for the first time) a directory in the form of the exact address. Here for example, /var/alternc/mail/d/denis@collectifs.net in place of using /var/alternc/mail/d/denis_collectifs.net
If i set mail_location = maildir:/var/alternc/mail/%1u/%n_%d/Maildir
All is working well, except is use denis_collectifs as user because dovecot creates a directory /var/alternc/mail/d/denis_collectifs.net_
Maybe that the best way is to modify the user_query , something like REPLACE(alias,'@','_') but i don't now if it's possible.
Thanks Denis
