Hi,

i just discover dovecot, and it's what i always wanted to have
i read that it support qmail Maildir, i use postfix, but read on
postfix site that postfix Maildir are compatible with qmail.
so i have something like
/var/mail/vhosts/domaine.tld/testuser/

i tried a simple setup to 'test'
auth_userdb = static uid=500 gid=500 home=/var/mail/vhosts/%d/%n
auth_passdb = passwd-file /usr/pkg/etc/dovecot-passwd.conf

all thing work exept that i don't see my email.
dovecot has created /var/mail/vhosts/domaine.tld/testuser/mail/
and it seems that inbox email are stored in
/var/mail/vhosts/archives.jeb.be/test3/mail/inbox
(i have put an email on my inbox folder into my email client)
but when i get a mail it's in /var/mail/vhosts/archives.jeb.be/.new/

so i'am wondering what is wrong,

thank you,
