Re: [Dovecot] Virtual Users and permission denied on POP3 Authentication - cur directory

Have the userdb part of the dovecot config set to

userdb static {

args = uid=5000 gid=5000 home=/var/spool/virtual_mailbox/%d/%n
allow_all_users=yes

}

instead of using the

userdb sql {

}

That should see you right. However, beware there may be security
issues allowing one user to write to all mailboxes.

Ian,

Thanks for the reply. However, when I make the change, %d (domain) is
not getting populated. I am expecting:

/var/spool/virtual_mailbox/domain1.com/user1

But I get:

/var/spool/virtual_mailbox//user1

And the query I use in the logs returns:

client out: OK 1 user=user1 domain=domain1.com

Where does Dovecot get the %d value when it tries to expand it?

Thanks, John
