The problem should be the maildir.
This is the current maildir path for erickom:
erickom@ajk:~$ ls -al /var/mail/metropolitan.org.za/erickom/Maildir/
total 20
well, your system users do not have no domain, %d is empty therefore.
Therefore, the mkdir(/var/mail//erickom/Maildir) contains the two // .
Actually, I'm not sure whether you can keep a domain (%d), but auth to an
userdb, that does not support domains. Well, you could return a domain
with extra fields.
But: eric...@example.com, eric...@nowhere.org, and
eric...@metropolitan.org.za would be authentificate successfully
to the system user erickom, but all three users would have another
mail_location because of the %n.
Do you actually need to support the domain %d part in mail_location?
