I've spent most of the morning looking through the archives. Great information, however, I'm still unable to get my issues figured out. I believe I am missing something quite simple. From what I have read, I want to use maildir, mainly because it will allow the use of subfolders for my clients. My clients are running Mail.app (mostly) on 10.3 clients. I'm planning on using imap and my clients must be able to create sub folders to organize their email.
I'm running into a couple problems. First, when I send an email to myself I see in the procmail log that it writes that message to: Folder: /Network/Servers/milhouse/Users/jpbuse/Maildir/new/msg.ZAgKB
However, when I send a message to another user on the same server it writes the message to: Folder: /var/mail/someuser
I don't understand why the home directory changed. I don't believe I have anything custom in my account vs anyone else.
My second issue/question.. how do I get Mail.app and SquirrelMail to see the email now that is not no longer in ~/mail ?
Home directories are in this format on the server: /home/users/j/jp/jpbuse
Users are authenticated via LDAP and their home directory actually is: /Network/Servers/milhouse/Users/jpbuse
I have a symlink that takes care of this and from what I can tell, works just fine.
Changed the following line in /etc/dovecot.conf: default_mail_env = maildir:%h
/etc/procmailrc looks like: # .procmailrc PATH=/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/bin MAILDIR=$HOME/Maildir DEFAULT=$MAILDIR/new PMDIR=/tmp/procmail LOGFILE=/var/log/procmail
# Use SpamAssassin INCLUDERC=/etc/mail/spamassassin/spamassassin-spamc.rc
