So I guess by ~/. you mean same as ~/ which is also the same as ~.
The problem with that is, as always, that users can store mails
everywhere in the home directory and there may be other non-mail files
in there messing things up.
I understand and agree with your second sentence.
The issue
Hi,
I'm switching from UW-imap to dovecot 2.0.1 and was wondering about the
mail_location config:
mail_location = mbox:~/.:INBOX=/var/mail/%u
Notice '.' in '~/.' above. This seems to resolve the ~/mail problem when
switching from
UW-imap (ie, no 'mail' prefix).
