Are home dirs and mail dirs related in any way? The only way you can get it
working is by using home dirs, e.g.:
user_attrs = mailbox=home=/var/maildir/%$
Then in dovecot.conf:
mail_location = maildir:~/
> namespace {
> type = shared
> separator = /

location = maildir:%%h/Maildir:INDEX=~/Maildir/shared/%%u
Of course, if you're already now using separate home dirs for some stuff, this
won't really work.
