I can't right now, David? Are you actually using this now?
My brief tests of your (Johannes's) patch on an rc2 base seemed good.
I am glad that Timo has committed this functionality to CVS since then.
I would be happy to test a later (post-commit) version.
But I notice (1) Timo says "with a few changes" (2) list discussion suggests that "rc6" seems a little unstable.
Would it be OK if I waited until "rc7" is out? (Another list thread seems to suggest that this should be quite soon.)
I'm a newcomer to dovecot so would rather avoid known instabilities diverting and distracting me. But if there did happen to be any problems in this new functionality(*), I would be reasonably confident in helping diagnose and attempting to fix them on a reasonably stable baseline.
(*) For the sake of mailing-list readership: the subject under discussion is the ability for "default_mail_env" to be able to specify: INBOX=/var/spool/mail/%-2.02i/%u (our example: large site, this area split into subdirectories of uid%100 i.e. last two decimal digits of users' uid).
