Hi,

I use $HOME/.maildir as my default mail location, and I have seen that
all the subsystems I use can be configured to use that location
(though in different configuration files), like:

incoming email: MAILDROPDEFAULT=./.maildir in courierd
pop daemon: MAILDIRPATH=.maildir in pop3d and pop3d-ssl (similarly for
imapd and webmail)
maildrop filtering from webmail: MAILDIR=./.maildir in maildirfilterconfig

etc. But I can't find a location where I could configure this for
pcpd. In fact, I think pcpd as "Maildir" hardcoded in it. I get

May 14 17:12:22 vaibus pcpd: NOTICE: chdir(Maildir) failed: No such
file or directory

every time I login, and a message in the webmail UI, that it has "Lost
connection to the calendar server!".

I tried echo MAILDIRPATH=.maildir > pcpd and service courier restart,
no luck. But if I ln -s .maildir Maildir, then it works fine but beats
the purpose of not having a Maildir in my home.

Looking at the source code, I think pcpd assumes $HOME/Maildir unless
it is told otherwise by the authentication module. And of course,
since I use authpam, I don't have a separate maildir entry in my
/etc/passwd.
