Thanks Steffen. :)

"mailMessageStore=maildir:mail"

this looks odd. Try:

mailMessageStore=mail

If i use absolute path in mailMessageStore, the maildir path is correct with 'mailMessageStore=mail', but deliver doesn't create the directory recursively:

deliver(www@a.cn): Mar 14 09:42:33 Info: auth input: home=/home/vmail deliver(www@a.cn): Mar 14 09:42:33 Info: auth input: quota_rule=*:bytes=104857600 deliver(www@a.cn): Mar 14 09:42:33 Info: auth input: mail=/home/vmail/a.cn/w/ww/www/ deliver(www@a.cn): Mar 14 09:42:33 Info: auth input: sieve_dir=/home/vmail/sieve/a.cn/www/ deliver(www@a.cn): Mar 14 09:42:33 Info: Quota root: name= backend=maildir args= deliver(www@a.cn): Mar 14 09:42:33 Info: Quota rule: root= mailbox=* bytes=104857600 messages=0 deliver(www@a.cn): Mar 14 09:42:33 Info: maildir autodetect: stat(/home/vmail/a.cn/w/ww/www//cur) failed: No such file or directory deliver(www@a.cn): Mar 14 09:42:33 Info: mbox autodetect: data=/home/vmail/a.cn/w/ww/www/ deliver(www@a.cn): Mar 14 09:42:33 Info: mbox autodetect: INBOX file: stat(/home/vmail/a.cn/w/ww/www/) failed: No such file or directory deliver(www@a.cn): Mar 14 09:42:33 Info: mbox autodetect: has .imap/: stat(/home/vmail/a.cn/w/ww/www//.imap) failed: No such file or directory deliver(www@a.cn): Mar 14 09:42:33 Info: mbox autodetect: has inbox: stat(/home/vmail/a.cn/w/ww/www//inbox) failed: No such file or directory deliver(www@a.cn): Mar 14 09:42:33 Info: mbox autodetect: has mbox: stat(/home/vmail/a.cn/w/ww/www//mbox) failed: No such file or directory deliver(www@a.cn): Mar 14 09:42:33 Error: mail_location: Ambiguous mail location setting, don't know what to do with it: /home/vmail/a.cn/w/ww/www/ (try prefixing it with mbox: or maildir:) deliver(www@a.cn): Mar 14 09:42:33 Fatal: Namespace initialization failed

How can i solve this?
