Hi, Toms.

I have a similar problem. When mail comes to user@domain.com (in lovercase) dovecot creates directory /vmail/domain.com/user, but if user types login like User@domain.com, then dovecot creates dir /vmail/domain.com/User and I wonder why dovecot accepts the login name at all?

In my sutiation dovecot is auth against mysql database.

I fixed this situation, and sorry for the noise :(

Reference: http://wiki.dovecot.org/Variables#head-010a6461d783547686f70249e820fd6b83fd4...

%L - lowercase

So i set mail_location to:

mail_location = maildir:/%Lh/%Ld/%Ln/:INDEX=/%Lh/%Ld/%Ln/

It works.
