Hi all! I have two userdb's, for one of them it's ldap based and the 2nd one is static. I want mail to ldap-users to be saved in /home/vmail/<username>/Maildir So far so good. Now I want mail to non-existent users to be placed in /home/vmail/<domain.tld>/Maildir (notice the double-slashes that indicate that %d is empty): # doveadm user publicfolder at vendelso.se rs at netnerdz.se field value uid 500 gid 500 home /home/vmail// mail maildir:/home/vmail//Maildir/ uid vmail gid vmail home /home/vmail/rs mail maildir:/home/vmail/rs uidNumber 500 gidNumber 500 And here's my configuration files: # cat /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext hosts = 172.20.202.60 dn=uid=dovecot,cn=sysaccounts,cn=etc,dc=netnerdz,dc=se dnpass=<suppressed> auth_bind = yes auth_bind_userdn = uid=%u,cn=users,cn=accounts,dc=netnerdz,dc=se ldap_version = 3 base = cn=accounts,dc=netnerdz,dc=se deref = never scope = subtree user_filter = (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(mail=%u@*)) user_attrs = \ =user=%{ldap:uid}, \ =home=/home/vmail/%{ldap:uid}, \ =mail=maildir:/home/vmail/%{ldap:uid}, \ =uidNumber=500, \ =gidNumber=500 pass_filter = (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(mail=%u@*)) pass_attrs = uid=user,userPassword=password # dovecot -n # 2.2.10: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 3.10.0-327.10.1.el7.x86_64 x86_64 CentOS Linux release 7.2.1511 (Core) auth_mechanisms = login gssapi plain auth_socket_path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-userdb auth_username_format = %n auth_username_translation = -
