In using mysql, in the configuration file we need to specify, in the user query, '/path/ as home, yet but in dovecot.conf, we also are setting mail_location, the same thing is it not, so unless I've missed something, do we still need to use the path as home in the user query? Do we only need set that if it differs from mail_location?
I can interprete your question in several ways, depending on what you are looking for:
https://wiki2.dovecot.org/VirtualUsers/Home
- -> yes, you need a home *and* a separate mail directory for each user
Dovecot can derive the mail_location from home (using ~ or $h), but not the other way round. Hence, you need to configure a home directory. Do this als default in the userdb section or let it return by the userdb.
You need not configure Mail_location in Dovecot's conf files, if you always return home and mail directory from your userdb.
