Is there a %%h, too? So that, if we have

by an checkpassword program to an compute value, to access another users mailbox.This would require doing a userdb lookup from dovecot-auth the same way as deliver or expire-tool does it.
I'm not quite sure what you mean by "this" here, are you referring
to the proposed `%%h' variable, too or only to my more specific problem with computer HOME paths?I think it's the same thing.
Is it? I might be wrong, but i thought for configurations where
userdb doesn't depend on the passdb implementing %%h as the home directory of user %%u should be straight forward. Or am I missing something?
I guess I just misunderstood what you meant. All I meant was that %%h
expansion would always have to be done using a userdb lookup.
