Re: [Dovecot] specifying home/sieve/sieve_dir relative to mail_location

But that requires Dovecot v2.1. I was refering to http://wiki1.dovecot.org/VirtualUsers/Home which, to my understanding, should apply to 1.2. I don't understand the Example at the bottom:

LDAP with relative directory paths

If your LDAP database uses e.g. mailDirectory = domain/user/, you can use it as a base for home directory:

user_attrs = .., mailDirectory=home=/var/vmail/%$ Then just use mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir.
