[Dovecot] beta8: complaint about tilde at startup

Timo,

After installing beta8 on Solaris 10 sparc and starting it for the first time, I noticed this in my syslog:

May 14 19:35:45 emerald dovecot: [ID 475045 mail.info] Dovecot v1.0.beta8 starting up May 14 19:35:47 emerald dovecot: [ID 536776 mail.error] stat(~) failed: No such file or directory

The only appearance of the tilde (~) in my dovecot.conf is here:

default_mail_env = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%1u/%u:INDEX=~

Is the INDEX definition wrong? Or is this a bug? My setup: Solaris 10, mbox format, home directories are local UFS filesystems, INBOX is an NFS-mounted filesystem from another S10 box (NFS version 4).
