"In an earlier post you said your user_query was:

user_query = SELECT CONCAT('/var/vmail/mail/', maildir) AS home, 5000 AS uid, 5000 AS gid, CONCAT('*:bytes=', quota) AS 
quota_rule FROM mailbox WHERE username = '%u' AND active=?1'

Last post you said:

mail is stored at /var/mail/vhosts

and:

mail_location = maildir:/var/mail/vhosts/%d/%n

These don't agree with your user_query.”


Probably my mis-statement

"Run a MySQL query:
SELECT `username`, `domain`, `maildir` FROM `mailbox` LIMIT 5;
Let's see the value of maildir”

mysql> SELECT `username`, `domain`, `maildir` FROM `mailbox` LIMIT 5;

"Also, lets see the output of:
ls -l /var/mail/vhosts/*”

It seems that the correct information is stored in the correct place   but i get


dovecot: auth-worker(21961): sql(abuse at kasdivi.com): unknown user 

Its seems like there is a simple config thing I am not getting right
