Dovecot expects mail user's home to be writable. If your home is not
writable by the user, you need to set mail_home=~/mail/ or something
and make that directory writable to dovecot, e.g. with chown.

Hello Aki,
I tried to change mail_home to several options (I've restarted dovecot
after each test):
mail_home = %h/mail/%d/%n
mail_home = ~/mail/%d/%n
I've even created a new dir (/dupes/) with 777 perms
mail_home = /dupes/
But I'm still viewing in the logs that it is trying to use /home/USER/
