Thank you again. Yes, you're on the way :-) Problem was that in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf was: mail_location = maildir:/home/vmail/%u/ instead of my new line: mail_location = maildir:/home/vmail/%d/%u/ I think it's all right now. Well...not all right, I see no mails with a client (it's on the mailserver filesystem) but it's another history ;-) Thanks in advance! 2010/9/1 <spamvoll(a)googlemail.com>: > mail_location: maildir:/home/vmail/%u/ > > check if there is the correct home in /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf > > maybe that is different, but not sure > > 2010/9/1 Pablo <boinker(a)gmail.com>: >> Thank you for your response. >> >> Yes, I know that I'm using maildir, but when we create an account, >> file sistem look likes: >> >> /home/vmail/domain.com/user1/new >> /home/vmail/domain.com/user1/cur >> /home/vmail/domain.com/user1/tmp >> >> My problem is that dovecot is creating additional folders: >> >> /home/vmail/user1/new >> /home/vmail/domain.com/user/cur >> /home/vmail/domain.com/user/tmp >> >> Mail are received in first directories, second ones are created but not used. >> >> What's the problem?

Thank you for your response. Yes, I know that I'm using maildir, but when we create an account, file sistem look likes: /home/vmail/domain.com/user1/new /home/vmail/domain.com/user1/cur /home/vmail/domain.com/user1/tmp My problem is that dovecot is creating additional folders: /home/vmail/user1/new /home/vmail/domain.com/user/cur /home/vmail/domain.com/user/tmp Mail are received in first directories, second ones are created but not used. What's the problem?

[Dovecot] Problems Converting Maildir to mdbox
by Christian Felsing 31 Aug '10

31 Aug '10

Hello, I would like to convert all users mail from maildir to mdbox. My Dovecot version is 2.0.1, converted from 1.2.13 but config was rewritten from scratch. http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Migration/MailFormat says following: maildir -> mdbox migration. Set mail_location=mdbox:~/mdbox and run doveadm convert -u username maildir:~/Maildir but doveadm does not know a command like "convert". Is there a _working_ way to convert maildir to mdbox ? How to do that with all Dovecot mail users (about 10000) ? Christian

[Dovecot] Running auth as root
by Egbert Jan van den Bussche 31 Aug '10

31 Aug '10

Hi, I seem to be forced to run the auth proces as root because I want to use pam for local users. My gut feeling says that this is Not Good. Is there another way? For the virtual users 'vmail' is good enough because that user may access the MySQL database. This is on Ubuntu server 10.04.1 and Dovecot 1.2.9. TIA, Egbert Jan
