[dovecot] Re: Failed to create storage with data: ::

[Jesse Peterson]

Hrm, I got the new files from CVS, but still:
Mar 16 16:19:08 pos imap(testuser): Failed to create storage with data: :
Mar 16 16:19:08 pos dovecot: child 24513 (imap) returned error 89

(note: one colon instead of two)
So I have to ask, is this still the correct usage:

user:password:uid:gid:(gecos):home:(shell):flags:mail
(from http://dovecot.procontrol.fi/doc/auth.txt)

Or are flags and mail not used?  How exactly is mail supposed to 
function and related to home?
