0) You are the socond person asking such question. 1) http://wiki.dovecot.org/MailLocation <quote> By default the mail_location setting is empty, which means that Dovecot attempts to locate automatically where your mails are. This is done by looking at ~/Maildir, /var/mail/username, ~/mail and ~/Mail in that order. It's usually a good idea to explicitly specify where the mails are, even if the autodetection happens to work. Autodetection commonly fails for new users who don't have the mail directory created yet. </quote> -- [pl>en: Andrew] Andrzej Adam Filip : a...@onet.eu "It's the best thing since professional golfers on 'ludes." -- Rick Obidiah
