Doh! Thanks, that fixed the mail location problem. In the log I can now see it is used when I use dovecot as Postfix service. The initial problem yet still remains. If I use "mailbox_command = ../deliver" deliver seems to use the $ENV settings. I can probably change those, but I'd rather have deliver read system user delivery options from LDAP, jsut as I do for my virtual users. > has caused problems for others on this list; like odd files showing up as > mail folders in the email client. Haven't had that yet, but will do as soon as I have problems, thanks. I can/will fix that if I get deliver use my LDAP settings. I've switched off all other userdb drivers. From my understanding deliver _must_ read from LDAP: userdb: driver: ldap args: /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf Wrong assumption?
