The above allows millions of files storage and can benefit from all ext4 lower kernel levels of compatibly rather then do stuff on the user-land.. Since I am not 100% sure that the scheme I understood is indeed what I think I assume the above will need a small correction.
I use:
mail_home = /srv/mailstore/%256LRHu/%Ld/%Lnwhich gives me 256 buckets containing domainname/username/, and the buckets are a hash of Lowercase Reverse usernames. To get the same layout as squid, I would try:
mail_home = /srv/mailstore/%16LRHu/%256LRHu/%LuRef: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Variables for variables and modifiers.
BTW: I'm lowercasing everything, because I once got bitten by a variable not being lowercased in one version, and suddenly this changing in another version. It's probably redundant here -- but it was painful to fix when it happened..
