[Dovecot] dovecot + postfix + freebsd help

Hi. I'm currently setting up dovecot to work with my server.

My inboxes from postfix are stored in
/usr/var/spool/mail/ and then the username, so for me that would be / 
usr/var/spool/mail/viktor

my homedirectory is /usr/home/glemme/homes/viktor/

so from what i can understand. My settings should be:
default_mail_env = mbox:%h/Mail:INBOX:/usr/var/spool/mail/%u

But guess what, I am probably wrong.

my mailapp tells me my inbox is empty and my log claims this:
dovecot: Oct 22 16:39:35 Info: imap(viktor: Effective uid=1015, gid=1004
dovecot: Oct 22 16:39:35 Info: imap(viktor: mbox: data=/usr/home/ 
glemme/homes/viktor/Mail:INBOX:/usr/var/spool/mail/viktor
dovecot: Oct 22 16:39:35 Info: imap(viktor): mbox: INBOX defaulted  
to /usr/home/glemme/homes/viktor/Mail/inbox
dovecot: Oct 22 16:39:35 Info: imap(viktor): mbox: root=/usr/home/ 
glemme/homes/viktor/Mail, index=/usr/home/glemme/homes/viktor/Mail,  
inbox=/usr/home/glemme/homes/viktor/Mail/inbox

Why is it defaulting from the right INBOX to the wrong one?

HELP!
