Just got dovecot running inside MEPIS 3.3.2 SOHO (debian). I am impressed. It works really well and I am planning to move my mail away from my Win server and access the mail from dovecot using imap. I have copied some folders from my existing Outlook mail system into the imap mail server without any problems....so here is the dumb question: where are the mail files/folders stored on the MEPIS server? I have been all over the file system and cant find any files that look right. The dovecot doco talks about mail location for the index files - but I have looked in all of those and cant find anything. The MEPIS system has a Maildir for the user......but that looks just as it did at install: contains three folders, cur, new and tmp all of which are empty :(
Do you see anything if you run:
ls -la Maildir/
in the users directories?
That's where the indexes are often stored..
