Have you checked your MTA (exim/postfix...) is delivering into maildir format?
Thank you. So Dovecot is good to go once I get the folders converted and get the MTA delivering to Maildir. I'll look at Postfix next.
Michael,
I've been working on a script that takes a fresh CentOS install
(http://www.centos.org) and turns it into a secure email server using
postfix, dovecot, clamav and spam assassin, all using Maildir. The
script is still a bit raw, but it may help you to see what changes you'd
need to make to ensure that everything works well with Maildir. Note:
CentOS is a RHEL 3 rebuild distro.
The script can be found here:

HTH,
