I'm a little confused by the following statement on that page:
If you were using e.g. mail_location = maildir:/var/mail/%h, just change it to mail_location = maildir:%h and add /var/mail/ prefix to home dirs.
However, looking at the patch (http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-1.2/rev/dd49cf3fd2c9) and a bug report (http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2009-July/041151.html) it seems to be more requiring the mail location path to start with a / ? ie the case the bug is with something like:
mail_location = maildir:foo/bar/%h
which would cause problems (looking at the patch in previous versions it would have treated the above as /foo/bar/%h) ?
I'm asking because I'd like to confirm that the following works correctly on v1.2 (in my tests it seems to):
mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir:INDEX=/var/dovecot/%h
ie putting index's elsewhere (but based on home directory path rather than the more traditional user/domain)
Thanks,
Mark

Hey folks. I'm currently running Dovecot v1.1.6, and would like to move to 1.2.x soon. I'm using MySQL-backed LDA and fully virtualized mailboxes. Are there any upgrade gotchas I should be aware of? How much config file hacking should I expect?
