[Dovecot] maildir file creation problem
this is my first post on the dovecot list. i have been using postfix with uw
i am getting the email bounced back with this message and i think it is related to dovecot or a permissions issue.

Do you an account using /dev/null as home directory, e.g. someone "locked down" or a dummy account?

Dovecot doesn't give such an error message or create that kind of maildir filenames, so the problem is your MTA/MDA configuration.
