Thanks!

So, it's a single uid/gid setting, and the permissions seem to be consistent.
(you could probably simplify your config, but it's another matter)

Looking at the home folder for test at ops.example.com:

	/srv/mail/ops.example.com/test/./

I'm not sure how Dovecot is supposed to interpret the ending "/./" part.

On the other hand, according to your global setting:

	mail_location = maildir:/srv/mail/%d/%n

this would translate as:

	maildir:/srv/mail/ops.example.com/test
	
for user test at ops.example.com.

Someone more knowledgeable than I am with maildir?

PS - Yes, Stan is right: always better to provide the output doveconf -n (and postconf -n), and even better in a message's body. :-)
