I have two kinds of accounts on the machine, local (shell) accounts in

add the hid/gid args in the sql block, but the syntax was incorrect.
There is default_fields, that should do it, e.g.
userdb {
args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext
driver = sql
default_fields = uid=vpopmail gid=postfix
}
I did not see anything about default_fields, so that is news to me. It
seems better, structurally, to do this wo when I next gt int there to
fix stuff, I will probably do that instead of...

Or extent your SQL user_query to return static values for uid / gid.
That is what I did, though I still have a problem with it all (see "Disagreement on
where mail goes." thread).
With both mechanisms you can solve the mail_location problem as well, by
defining mail= in default_fields or returing a field "mail". Actually, you
can use both: use "default_fields = mail=/path/%u" for most SQL users and
return the field "mail" with some content, in order to override even the
that default.
The system users would then use the mail_location setting from the conf
files.
BTW: Your users have a home directory and Dovecot knows about it? Use
"home" with default_fields. It should differ from the mail location.

Therefore, to use "%h/Maildir" is not a bad decision for virtual users,
too.
