With simple minimal config

dovecot_config_version = 2.4.2
dovecot_storage_version = 2.4.0
mail_driver = maildir
mail_home = /home/vmail/%{user}
mail_path = ~/mail
passdb static {
  password = # hidden, use -P to show it
}

#####

doveadm mailbox create -u testuser foo.bar.baz

#####

~# find /home/vmail/testuser/
/home/vmail/testuser/mail/tmp
/home/vmail/testuser/mail/cur
/home/vmail/testuser/mail/new
/home/vmail/testuser/mail/.foo.bar.baz
/home/vmail/testuser/mail/.foo.bar.baz/tmp
/home/vmail/testuser/mail/.foo.bar.baz/new
/home/vmail/testuser/mail/.foo.bar.baz/dovecot.index.log
/home/vmail/testuser/mail/.foo.bar.baz/maildirfolder
/home/vmail/testuser/mail/.foo.bar.baz/cur
/home/vmail/testuser/mail/.foo.bar.baz/dovecot-uidlist

Does this suffice as evidence?
