Maybe it got it elsewhere? From userdb maybe? Or do you also have default_mail_env? Or if you change that setting, does the path in the error message change?
I guess that's it. The MAIL environment is also fetched from LDAP via user_attrs. I'm sorry for bothering you. Must have overlooked that mail_location only provides the default--from this point of view default_mail_env was a better name.
Since the LDAP is read by various applications I can't store the mail location including maildir: there. Is it possible to prepend "mailbox:" the MAIL environment while fetching it in user_attrs?
Creating the cur directory probably fixed it because then it allowed the mailbox format autodetection code to work.
Seems so.
