[Dovecot] 2.1.5 problem with mail_location
I've been advised to set : mail_location = maildir:~/ as the home directory is found through a sql request.
this has been working perfectly up to and including 2.1.4
from 2.1.5 however this setting gives cause to a problem : instead of looking in the mail home eg /var/mail/domain/user\@domain/ dovecot is looking for mail in /var/mail/domain/user\@domain/~
the '~' directory is created upon the first request for mail and all future mail transactions in dovecot is done relative to this folder.
is this behavior a bug or a feature ???

Yeah, it's a bug. Fixed and added to tests so it won't break in future: http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.1/rev/249c1c89d9d3
