[Dovecot] Problem getting new mail from Postfix to Dovecot
Dear reader,
I am having problems getting new mail into my Inbox. I have this in my dovecot.conf:
default_mail_env = maildir:~/Maildir:INBOX=/var/mail/%u
The logs show nothing special, catting /var/mail/%u shows the new mails coming in, as does /var/log/mail.info
Any clues?
Regards, Dave.

Have you told Postfix to deliver in Maildir format? If not, either change it, or tell Dovecot the INBOX is mbox.
Just an idea.

How about just:
default_mail_env = maildir:~/Maildir
Dovecot searches the users individual mailboxes. It works great for me and I directed Postfix to the same location as well. Will L G
