I was wondering if somebody could tell me how I can tell dovecot
(IMAP) to read users' mail boxes at /var/spool/mail/{1st char}/{2nd
char}/username .

For example: Mailbox for user 'mike' would be located at /var/spool/mail/m/i/mike 'karen' would be at /var/spool/mail/k/a/karen etc...

Look at http://wiki.dovecot.org/Variables. I think the notation would
be %1u/%1.1u/%u
