Home directory is used wherever you have ~/ or %h. Or in your case because you tried to use a relative mail_location path and Dovecot chdired to home dir. > So, is it correct > that mail_location is the rule, unless mail is set in user_attrs, in > which case mail_location is overridden with the attributes from > user_attrs? Is that how it works? Right. And you can override pretty much any other setting from userdb as well. Hmm. Perhaps userdb should be returning mail_location also instead of mail to make this more understandable.
