Yes, that is what I did and it all works apart from the error message on the server about the missing home dir
The doc seems to indicate that a home dir is needed.
If you enable mail_debug=yes and perhaps auth_debug=yes, you should see what the imap service is using as the home directory and why.

I made a mistake when I moved dovecot to a new server and only specified mail_location instead of mail_home
All I have in 10-mail.conf is
mail_location = maildir:/home/vmail/mailboxes/%d/%n
All emails for the few accounts I have are in these mailboxes and I can get/see them via my mail client
I do, however, get the following error
imap(bob@aaa.bbb): Error: User bob@aaa.bbb doesn't have home dir set, disabling duplicate database
After looking at https://wiki2.dovecot.org/VirtualUsers/Home I tried the following
mail_home = /home/vmail/mailboxes/%d/%n
mail_location = maildir:~/mail
Problem with this is that I now can't see any of my emails in the client.
Appreciate any help on how to fix this.
Well, you changed the effective maildir directory to /home/vmail/mailboxes/%d/%n/mail. So, if you want to use it like that, you'll have to move the maildir for each user to that new path template.
