Re: Dovecot keeps creating info files in mail directory instead of home

My userdb is set up correctly to return home, and mail, and a test with 'doveadm user' verifies this:

# doveadm user user@domain field value uid 1000 gid 1000 home /var/domain/user mail maildir:/var/mail/user@domain

I've reloaded, restarted, stopped and started dovecot again - and even deleted the info files in the mail directory just to be sure - but each and every time I log in with imap, dovecot recreates the files again (dovecot.index.log, dovecot-uidlist, etc.) in the mail directory instead of home.

You forgot to post your config. But the following might help:
