Yes, all folder tree has vmail:vmail as the owner, and dovecot can create the folders without issues. I verified that when manually creating those folders, the warnings disappear, the main issue still remains though. When I send the first mail to a user he has this layout: cur dovecot.index.cache dovecot.index.log dovecot-uidlist dovecot-uidvalidity dovecot-uidvalidity.5191f7ad maildirsize new tmp
Sadly ,there's no home folder, so I've no other option than to create the folder by hand? 2013/5/14 Angel L.
