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
Your LDAP based userdb doesn't return the home directory for user foo. The LDAP lookup should return the home directory. See http://wiki2.dovecot.org/UserDatabase
And even for virtual users you should have a home directory for each virtual user. See http://wiki2.dovecot.org/VirtualUsers/Home
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?
Because the userdb returns the home directory of the system user bar.
