Anyone has any ideas ?

I also realized that not only can domains be placed within another sub-folder if there are too many, but so can users.

For example, if a domain has 1000 users, its path might be something like:

/usr/home/vpopmail/domains/8/xyz.com/A/myuser

Therefore a static location is not feasible at all.

I'm using dovecot 1.2.14 with vpopmail.

I've enabled shared folders and the default setup was not working. The default setup being this line:

location = maildir:%%h/Maildir:INDEX=~/Maildir/shared/%%u

Going through the Archives I saw a message from Timo that said to apply a patch and use this line instead:


location = maildir:/usr/home/vpopmail/domains/%d/%%n/Maildir:INDEX=~/Maildir/shared/%%u

It seems like the patch is already existing in version 1.2.14 and that line works well for shared folders for domains directly under /usr/home/vpopmail/domains.

However, with vpopmail after a certain number of domains, it starts putting them in /usr/home/vpopmail/domains/A, ..domains/B, etc.

Shared folders do not work for those domains since my location line is forcing it to look directly in /usr/home/vpopmail/domains/xyz.com instead of /usr/home/vpopmail/domains/A/xyz.com

Any workaround this ? How come we can't use %h or ~/ directly ?
