When I set mail_home = mbox:/var/spool/vhosts/%d/%n:INBOX=/var/spool/vhosts/%d/%n
I get this for mboxes in the log: Error: user archiv@xyz.de: Relative home directory paths not supported: mbox:/var/spool/vhosts/xyz.de/archiv:INBOX=/var/spool/vhosts/xyz.de/archiv
mail_home should be set to the path to a directory, not a mailbox location. You want just
mail_home = /var/spool/vhosts/%d/%nDovecot is interpreting the initial 'mbox:' part as the start of a relative path.
