... Today I needed to set up a second user. I added his account in kmail and created a sub- folder, but no sent-mail, trash etc. were created. I have sent test messages and /var/log/maillog says they have been processed, but they are not arriving in his inbox.
How did you create the user on the server, please?
Using Fedora's User management tool
Can you show us the output of
grep -ie FirstUser -ie SecondUser /etc/ passwd?
grep -ie anne -ie david /etc/passwd anne:x:500:100:Anne Wilson:/home/anne:/bin/bash david:x:502:100:David Wilson:/home/david:/bin/bash
Of
ls -la ~FirstUser ~SecondUser?
Do you really want that - it's huge - or do you want me to look for specific lines? I'll post all of it if you need it.

If you ask for help you just need to provide relevant information -
you just need to post something that indicates that a maildir exists
for each user, contains the appropriate [cur|new|tmp] directories and
has the same name / relative path from each ~. You should also
indicate that permissions are correct.

As I thought - you need edited reports. Fine. This report shows a part of my Maildir setup - I have thousands of messages in about 30 directories - and the whole of david's, apart from the fact that I've included samples of mails that were copied from his local kmail inbox. Please let me know if this is not sufficient.
