Yeah, your right about Virtual being eaiser in the long run. I was just excited that I was almost done configuring my server and now I need to do some more work to it!! Augh!

It will pay off in the long haul though...

Brian,

Thank you for your reply.  That is a long way to go to simply change
the location that Postfix delivers to.  Is that the only way.

I should be using Virtual Users anyway, as I'm the only one who
actually needs shell access.  Everyone else is just needs mail...

The only other way is to use a non-Postfix delivery agent that will
support this.

Research the change to virtual vs another delivery agent.
Note: other agents are executed as the UNIX user unless you write a
custom transport in master.cf.

A virtual setup can be easier to maintain in the long run.

Hello,

Is there any way to change the "home_mailbox" definition so that it is
NOT relative to the system user home directory?  For example, I don't
want to have mail delievered to in */home/%u/Maildir*.  What I would
like is something like* /home/vmail/%u(username)/Maildir/*.  I want to
keep home directories clean.

Use a virtual MAILBOX setup.
