here i use the "virtual_mailbox_base" option of postfix to force mailbox location on delivery with virtual.
But remember that the first job of a courrier pop/imap is to chdir in the home directory. this homedir is mandatory !
Anyway thru courrier userdb you can set the mail ENV to force the maildir in the proper location.
hope this help

Hi,
I'm migrating an HPUX sendmail/qpopper server to a debian postfix/courier one.
The config is the following : - authentification through flat /etc/passwd file, - postfix delivering mail in /var/mail in maildir format - courier-pop/courier-imap to access the mail in daemon mode.
I wasn't able to configure courier-pop to read in /var/mail without changing the homedir in /etc/passwd (which is not an option here).
Did anybody succeed with such a config (ie having courier-pop read mail in /var/mail) ?
What works but doesn't suit my needs : - LDAP auth + some attribut pointing to /var/mail/$login - from the "postfix+mysql+courrier howto" seems you can do it - changing the homedir path in /etc/passwd - using "regular" maildir in /home/$login
Any idees/suggestions ?
