ok I tried this as the query:
password_query = SELECT uName as user, uNameDomain as username, uDomain
as domain, uPass as password FROM users WHERE uName = '%n' AND uDomain =
'%d'
and it is still putting mail /var/spool/mail/chayes and erroring trying
to look in cha...@domain.tld/chayes instead of
/var/spool/mail/cha...@domain.tld
