The O.S. is Linux Debian/woody running on a diskless i386 machine. The MTA is Exim which is running as mail.mail. The Mailboxes are, as per default, under /var/mail. The Maildirs are under /var/mail/maildirs owned by mail.mail with permission 0700.
/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf (items differing from default):
protocols = imap imaps pop3 pop3s disable_plaintext_auth = no log_path = /var/log/dovecot.log login_dir = /var/run/dovecot-login login_chroot = yes first_valid_uid = 8 last_valid_uid = 8 mail_extra_groups = mail
# map/imaps namespace private { separator = / prefix = location = maildir:/var/mail/maildirs/%u:INDEX=/var/mail/maildirs/%u/indexes:INBOX=/var/mail/maildirs/%u/.INBOX inbox = yes hidden = no }
# pop3/pop3s namespace private { separator = / prefix = pop3/ location = mbox:/var/mail/%u:MAIL=/var/mail/%u:INDEX=/var/mail/maildirs/%u/indexes:INBOX=/var/mail/%u inbox = no hidden = yes }
auth default { mechanisms = plain passdb passwd-file { args = /etc/dovecot/account } userdb static { # uid=8=mail, gid=8=mail args = uid=8 gid=8 home=/var/mail/maildirs/%u MAIL=/var/mail/%u } }
/etc/dovecot/account:
... angela:{PLAIN}password1 dario:{PLAIN}password2 ...
/etc/aliases (to let exim delivering to maildir for some users only):
... dario: /var/mail/maildirs/dario/.INBOX/ ...
