Hi, ** Using Dovecot 2.2.22 and Postfix 3.1.0 **
I plan to migrate all accounts on my server from mbox to maildir storage but before i want to make some tests on dedicated accounts. To do so i want to overide the general "mail_location" ( mail_location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u ) with "maildir:~/Maildir" only for some test accounts.
To do so i modified my "/etc/passwd" file using something like that :
testm2m_mydomain.tld:x:2122:2122::/home/mail/testm2m_mydomain.tld:/bin/false:userdb_mail=maildir:~/Maildir Also tried testm2m_mydomain.tld:x:2122:2122::/home/mail/testm2m_mydomain.tld:/bin/false::userdb_mail=maildir:~/Maildir
And as mentioned in the doc (https://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA/Postfix) i added -d "$USER" in my Postfix "mailbox_command" but it don't seem to work (my new mail_location for this test user is is not taken into account).
When i try to make an "doveadm user testm2m_mydomain.tld" i get this :
8<-------------------------------- field value uid 2122 gid 2122 home /home/mail/testm2m_mydomain.tld mail mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/testm2m_mydomain.tld system_groups_user testm2m_mydomain.tld 8<--------------------------------
My modification is not taken into account ...
Any help is welcome !
