[Dovecot] Newby Question
Hello
I just setup my IMAP server and everything works great, except for 1 small detail.
I am upgrading from uwashington's imap server, and in theirs I had to put a directory "mail" in for the imap folder (this is on the client). The problem I have is with dovecot this makes an extra level (I think).
So on my server ~/mail is where the mail folder is located, but when the client puts in the "mail" for the imap server directory dovecot looks in and creates folders in ~/.mail/mail.
This is a problem for me because I have many clients and I would have to go reconfigure each one.
My question is this, is there a way to make dovecot look in ~/ so that when combined with the imap folder from the client it ends up in ~/mail?
I hope that is clear enough, I was thinking maybe I need to set default_mail_env, but i have no idea to what?
Thanks in advance Troy

One of the examples is:
default_mail_env = mbox:~/mail/:INBOX=/var/mail/%u
so you'd probably want then:
default_mail_env = mbox:~/:INBOX=/var/mail/%u
