Hi,

I have fixed this fault - the following line in my /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf file was setting the setgid to 5000, and the user id to 5000 also

auth default {
    	...
    	userdb static {
        	args = uid=5000 gid=5000 home=/home/vmail/%d/%n allow_all_users=yes
    	}
	...
}

I changed these two values to 8 ( the id of mail on my system) and emails are now being delivered to the proper folders

thanks

Christy
