I set auth_debug=yes and mail_debug=yes. Comparing the log output - other than the fact that the working server has additional lines for the mailboxes found they look identical. No errors. Yet there's no mail when booting the other drive.
I can see the mailboxes in the file path, everything appears mounted, I don't see any rights issues. There's no errors. Yet I have no mail.
What's my next step? I can post log sections - they're kind of lengthy and I don't see anything wrong in them anyway.

Increase the logging level and see where the problem is.

This is driving me nuts.
I need to rebuild a server - got a notification the main drive is failing, and it's been a year or two, so it's time. Got a new drive, fresh install of Ubuntu Tantric, started installing everything needed. Data stored on a RAID array - nicely available separate from the boot/operation drive.
Did a fresh compile of Dovecot, copied over the configs from the old drive, mounted the RAID...and...
Dovecot starts, authenticates users - and shows empty mailboxes. Nothing shown. Full panic - reboot on old drive. All mails present. Change back
- no mail.
Executing "doveadm user -u username" seems to give valid results. Mailbox location appears correct (using mdbox).
I setup uid/gid the same - I thought it was a rights issue but everything looks correct.
What can I do to try to find the stupid mistake I'm making?
