Hi Everyone.
I have a question.
We have a postfix server, it works great. All the users on that postfix are added without home directory, we need to change the mbox default to maildir in order to have dovecot working with IMAP.
We just changed the home_mailbox = Mailbox command to home_mailbox = Maildir/. The problem is that postfix is trying to use the home directory of those users to store the mail directory. The question is:
Is there some way to change the mail directory of every user to /var/spool/mail/user/ ?? If so how can we do that?
Thanks for your help and have a great day.
Regards.
Alfonso.

Sure, but since you forgot to post "postconf -n" output it's hard to

according to this, mail should be delivered in /var/spool/mail/user,
which is not what you see to have. please post logs that show email
being delivered. also, post your master.cf to see if it overrides your
main.cf configuration.
note that if you are delivering your mail using dovecot LDA, then you
will need to configure dovecot lda, not postfix.

home_mailbox = Maildir/
as
http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#home_mailbox
says, "Optional pathname of a mailbox file relative to a local(8) user's
home directory." the user home directory must be exist.
but that's not what you want. it seems you want something like
mail_spool_directory = /var/spool/maildirs
(with a trailing slash), but you must create users directories in advance:
mkdir /var/spool/maildirs/joe
chown joe /var/spool/maildirs/joe
For more infos, see
http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#mail_spool_directory
http://www.postfix.org/local.8.html
alternatively, use dovecot LDA to deliver mail. in this case, you will
only need to configure dovecot (and will help reduce the opprtunity of
mismatch between postfix and dovecot configurations).
