[Dovecot] mail accounts for users without home dirs

Hi!

I use dovecot on a machine where users without an existing home directory (Not 
my idea...) need to access their mailboxes. Unfortunately dovecot tries to 
chdir to the users home directory before allowing IMAP access - is there 
anything I can do about that besides creating a dummy-homedirectory for these 
users?

Greetings,

  Gunter
