Hello!
I have problems fetching mail for a system user. In use is a passwd-file.
If I set (for virtual users) mail_uid = vmail mail_gid = vmail in 10-mail.conf, I get permission denied.
2020-03-23 18:39:23 imap(andreas@dualbit.de): Error: chdir(/home/andreas/Maildir/) failed: Permission denied (euid=5000(vmail) egid=5000(vmail) missing +x perm: /home/andreas/Maildir, dir owned by 5006:5006 mode=0700)
The mailbox has permissions drwx------. 9 andreas susers If I don't set mail_uid I get an error because of missing mail_uid.
I can only access the users mailbox if I set mail_uid = 5006 in 10-mail.conf
On another system I don't haver this problem. I made diffs, read alot of stuff and can't find a solution.
What is the way to go, please? I would like to know why this does not work.
Below my doveconf -n

The mailbox has permissions drwx------. 9 andreas susers If I don't set mail_uid I get an error because of missing mail_uid.
Can you send output of
doveadm user andreas@dualbit.de

Or even, which is the only solution that works for now.
# doveadm user andreas@dualbit.de field value uid 5006 gid vmail home /home/andreas/Maildir mail maildir:~/
