Sorry, was not solved.

I've changed in dovecot-sql.conf:

password_query = SELECT password FROM mailbox WHERE username = '%u' user_query = SELECT maildir, 1001 AS uid, 1001 AS gid FROM mailbox WHERE username = '%u'

by:

password_query = SELECT password FROM mailbox WHERE username = '%n' user_query = SELECT maildir, 1001 AS uid, 1001 AS gid FROM mailbox WHERE username = '%n'

Now I think it's all right.

Thank you again, guys :-)

Thank you again.

Yes, you're on the way :-)

Problem was that in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf was:

mail_location = maildir:/home/vmail/%u/

instead of my new line:

mail_location = maildir:/home/vmail/%d/%u/

I think it's all right now. Well...not all right, I see no mails with a client (it's on the mailserver filesystem) but it's another history ;-)

Thanks in advance!

mail_location: maildir:/home/vmail/%u/

check if there is the correct home in /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf

maybe that is different, but not sure

Thank you for your response.

Yes, I know that I'm using maildir, but when we create an account, file sistem look likes:

/home/vmail/domain.com/user1/new /home/vmail/domain.com/user1/cur /home/vmail/domain.com/user1/tmp

My problem is that dovecot is creating additional folders:

/home/vmail/user1/new /home/vmail/domain.com/user/cur /home/vmail/domain.com/user/tmp

Mail are received in first directories, second ones are created but not used.

What's the problem?

Thanks again!

its because u using maildir to store your mails.

THE MAILDIR STRUCTURE A directory in maildir format has three subdirectories,  all on the same filesystem:  tmp, new, and cur.

Hi guys.

My conf:

# 1.2.9: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.32-23-server x86_64 Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS reiserfs log_timestamp: %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S protocols: imap imaps pop3 pop3s ssl_cert_file: /etc/ssl/mail/dovecot.crt ssl_key_file: /etc/ssl/mail/dovecot.key disable_plaintext_auth: no login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable(default): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(imap): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(pop3): /usr/lib/dovecot/pop3-login mail_location: maildir:/home/vmail/%u/ mail_debug: yes mbox_write_locks: fcntl dotlock mail_executable(default): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap mail_executable(imap): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap mail_executable(pop3): /usr/lib/dovecot/pop3 mail_plugin_dir(default): /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/imap mail_plugin_dir(imap): /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/imap mail_plugin_dir(pop3): /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/pop3 auth default: mechanisms: plain login verbose: yes debug: yes debug_passwords: yes passdb: driver: sql args: /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf userdb: driver: sql args: /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf socket: type: listen client: path: /var/spool/postfix/private/auth mode: 432 user: postfix group: postfix master: path: /var/run/dovecot/auth-master mode: 384 user: vmail group: vmail

My problem is that dovecot is creating aditional folders:

#ls -l /home/vmail

drwx------ 6 vmail vmail 184 2010-09-01 01:31 escuelasuperiordecoaching.com drwx------ 8 vmail vmail 392 2010-09-01 10:58 pablo.rodriguez@escuelasuperiordecoaching.com

# ls -l escuelasuperiordecoaching.com/ drwx------ 5 vmail vmail 120 2010-08-30 14:35 pablo.rodriguez

I'm receiving mail in /home/vmail/escuelasuperiordecoaching.com/pablo.rodriguez/new without problem, but why is dovecot creating aditional folders?

My log:

I can see that Dovecot is creating when...I login?

What's the problem? I can't understand...

Thanks in advance.
