mail_location maildir:~/Maildir Invalid user settings[SOLVED]

Wed Nov 26 08:04:04 UTC 2014

Hallo list,

I was having quite a hard time configuring dovecot on OpenBSD -current.

The problem was default Maildir setting in 10-mail.conf, namely:
mail_location maildir:~/Maildir
was unable to locate user's home directory.
As far as I can remember, it was the correct setting on
OpenBSD-current a week or two ago.
Once I figured out and changed it to
mail_location maildir:/path/to/home/%u/Maildir
the problem was solved.

Attached are dmesg, maillog and doveconf -n output.
