Hello
It is is possible. You just need to replace the.
maildir: prefix with mdbox:, for mail_location, for each one of the
test mail boxes.
Thanks for the reply, although I am not sure you understand the
question. I know what I need to do, I just don't know how (syntax to use
in the dovecot configuration file) to change the mail_location on a
per-user basis with the "passwd" userdb backend.
I am no Dovecot expert, but maybe you could add a passwd-file userdb
alongside your regular userdb.
Then for the users you want to test with:
user:password-ignored--will-use-passdb-instead:1000:1000::/home/user::userdb_mail=mdbox:~/Maildir
See <http://wiki.dovecot.org/AuthDatabase/PasswdFile>
The thing I'm not sure about is which order you should list your userdb
sections in the config file such that "passwd-file" takes precedence
over "passwd".
