Where is that user's home directory, then? (Where is its .dovecot.sieve?) That is the path that mail_home should be set to.
It's /var/spool/vhosts/xyz.de/archiv . It's one file, a mbox. There is no .dovecot.sieve. This mbox is flushed various times a day by a MUA. This user archiv is a virtual user and has no home directory, just a mbox.
Your mail_home needs to be a directory, not a file. mbox files should be located inside a subdirectory of your mail_home.
Thank you, got it! And migrated the users to the new location of the mboxes. Great! That makes everything much easier.
