Vmail Home

26 Sep 2022


      Hello,
I use Opensmtpd with Dovecot LMTP. All this run but one point I not
understand.
I use Virtual Users, with System User vmail, home is /var/vmail but
dovecot stored message in path /home/vmail/<domain>/user. In configuration
files is /var/vmail (dovecot users).
Thx for help
