I see.
So, please what kind of permission I have to set in the MailDir directory?
I tryed to set 700, 770, 777 but it doesn't work.

My environment is the following:
All users mapped in ldap having the same group.
The /home/user permissions are 755 and the /home/user directory is  
owned by user:group
The /home/user/MailDir directory have 755 permissions and is owned by  
user:group
Here is the output of my dovecot -n (v2.0.13) where all works fine for me:

The same config in v2.1.10 works fine but it don't use maildir hardlinks.
I want to update my dovecot installation to set up sieve in my  
production server, but I am blocked becouse maildir hardlinks does'nt  
work.
Any help would be really appreciated.
Thank you.
