I cannot get to the Maildir info for a user. The user's user_db is set
up in /home/dovecot.passwd.
Here is the transcript of the pop3 connection:

The /home/dovecot.passwd has the following.
more /home/dovecot.passwd
health:$1$MCtvt/Tz$FmKqU/cbWlBhKnhc5W.Ko.:1152:1152:/home/health:userdb_mail=mai
ldir:~/Maildir
WHY can I get the emails from ~health/Maildir/new ???
