I went from uw-imap to dovecot some months ago and necessary changes
to the .mailboxlist to .subscriptions.  Is there a different format
for version 1.0.7?

No. There should be no changes between 1.0.3 and 1.0.7 that could cause
this. So I don't think the problem is with the version number change,
but something else.

Setting mail_debug=yes (and maybe auth_debug=yes) and looking at logs
would show what Dovecot is really using as home directory and mail
location.

Have done. When initially logging in, Messages show (using horde/imp). After reading first message I get a no messages message. This is in my logfiles for each user:

Nov 26 09:28:10 mail dovecot: IMAP(someuser): mbox: data=/home/someuser/:INBOX=/var/mail/someuser Nov 26 09:28:10 mail dovecot: IMAP(someuser): mbox: root=/home/someuser, index=/home/someuser, inbox=/var/mail/someuser Nov 26 09:28:10 mail dovecot: IMAP(someuser): open(/var/mail/.temp.mail.harrisonburg.k12.va.us.23157.22aab3df3f835fed) failed: Permission denied Nov 26 09:28:10 mail dovecot: IMAP(someuser): file_lock_dotlock() failed with mbox file /var/mail/someuser: Permission denied.

Now the only difference other than the version I can see is the new version built with ssl. Which I would like to use.

thanks,

ddh
