Hello everyone,
I have a small problem with dovecot installed on ubuntu-13.10. I use dovcot as LDA with a LDAP-passdb and a pam-passdb. The userdb is static. A mail to LDAP-user 'foo' is delivered with the error-message
dovecot: lda(foo): Error: User foo doesn't have home dir set, disabling duplicate database
A mail to the pam-user 'bar' will deliverd without this error. But both users should work with the static-userdb. Where is my mistake?
Greetings Christian
