I'm using postfix for mta. It has been running since the box was built.
Before I installed Dovecot, I had no ~/mail. (There's no "dot" in it as I mistakenly indicated in my first post). My mail just accumulated in /var/mail/michael and sat there. I activated Dovecot and ~/mail appeared and I could get at it via IMAP. So I assumed Dovecot was reading /var/mail/michael and "delivering" it to ~/mail.
Is this not the case?
No - ~/mail is for all mailboxes except INBOX, which is stored below /var/mail/ .
So, in normal circumstances, who is responsible for keeping /var/mail from filling up?
Your users.
