Hi,
on my vps (debian stable) I have an email system with postfix, dovecot,
virtual users and domains.
I have 3 users with different mail_locations.
the first mail_location = maildir: ~ / Maildir
the second mail_location = maildir: ~ / user1 / Maildir
the third mail_location = maildir: ~ / user2 / mail
In postfix the above schema is represented in virtual_mailbox_maps.
In dovecot mail_location is set maildir:~/Maildir.
The first user receives regular mail, the other two none.

You can return mail attribute from your userdb (or passdb) to override the default mail_location.
Ensure that doveadm user targetuser shows mail pointing to correct location. You can use ~/ with mail.
You do this by providing three different values for mail attribute in your passdb or userdb, for these users.
You can use
userdb {
driver = passwd-file
args = /etc/dovecot/override.passwd
}
to do this if it's not feasible with your current userdb provider.

If I understand correctly I can repeat the userdb section:
userdb {
driver = passwd
override_fields = mail=~/Maildir
}
userdb {
driver = passwd
override_fields = mail=/home/user1/user1/Maildir
}
userdb {
driver = passwd
override_fields = mail=/home/user2/user2/mail
}
What do you think of this setup ?
Gab
That you totally misunderstood my point.
userdb {
driver = passwd-file
args = /etc/dovecot/override.passwd
}
/etc/dovecot/override.passwd
user1:*:::::::mail=~/user1/mail
user2:*:::::::mail=~/user2/mail
