I'm unclear about where and how this is to be used. I gather it is
to be a new standard, but I didn't seem to find anything about it in
the Dovecot Wiki Mail Location page. There are some words about it
in the 1.1.12/3 release notes, but perhaps I'm thick, but they're
meta-ambiguous to me.
Is it meant to be used like this:
mail_location = mbox:MAILBOXDIR=~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u
instead of the current
mail_location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u
No, don't use MAILBOXDIR with mbox or maildir. It's primarily useful
with dbox. But the correct syntax would have been:
mail_location = mbox:~/mail:MAILBOXDIR=mailboxes:INBOX=/var/mail/%u
