Basically, you need to use the mail_location in dovecot.conf, as such: mail_location = mbox:~/mail You might also need to check the files ~/.mailboxlist, used by UW-IMAP, and ~/mail/.subscriptions, used by Dovecot. They contain the list of subscribed directories, relative to the root defined. For me, they were identical enough that I simply did a hardlink from one to another.
