Hello, Timo.

I have a question about %H in http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Variables : what the hash function uses for calculations and how to get this value manually? This is need for bypass way getting home directory.

It's a pretty bad hash calculation: http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.2/file/754d244b8249/src/lib/hash.c#l501

In v2.2 hg there's now an MD5 based %N ("new hash") that gives much better distribution of values.
