[Dovecot] different mail_locations

[Antonio Casado Rodríguez]

Hi all

I've mounted a cluster ACTIVE-PASIVE, with the mailbox in a SAN. The 
user's home are:
/Correo/mail/foo/home

I use:  Postfix, dovecot and dovecot_lda.

The folder /san/mail is only show in the active node (switch the virtual 
ip, filesystem and daemons).

How i configure dovecot mail_location?? Now i have:
mail_location: maildir:/Correo/mail/%n

The problem is that the admin mails in pasive node are in enqueued and 
not arrive.

I need a user with mail_location in /var/spool/mail/foo (in aliases,  
root: foo)and the rest users in /Correo/mail/

I have seen override mail_executable, but it not work with dovecot_lda 
and postfix (local mailer).

I have thinked about:   mail_location: maildir:%h/..

Have you any idea?
