In prepping our IMAP migration to Dovecot, I've hit upon a small issue: the "IMAP server directory" which Thunderbird users have set in the "advanced" prefs.

Our old IMAP server seems to set your current directory to ~. This wound up causing users to set their IMAP server directory to "/home/<user>/mail/" so that their mailboxes would be found:

Namespaces will help you: http://wiki.dovecot.org/Namespaces

mail_full_filesystem_access=yes also works, but I'd use namespaces instead.
