dovecot - Aug 2007 - userdb override?

Hi,

I used to change the mailbox root for some users using a custom userdb 
file which contains lines like:
doe::20000:200::/u/doe::userdb_mail=mbox:/u/doe/Mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u

The logfiles shows the mail location stays default ( rc15 worked ):

index=/u/doe, inbox=/var/mail/doe

Configuration:

# 1.0.3: etc/dovecot.conf
mail_location: mbox:~/:INBOX=/var/mail/%u
auth default:
  mechanisms: plain login digest-md5 cram-md5 ntlm
  verbose: yes
  debug: yes
  passdb:
    driver: passwd-file
    args: /etc/userdb_extra
  passdb:
    driver: pam
  userdb:
    driver: passwd
    args: /etc/userdb_extra
  userdb:
    driver: passwd-file
    args: /etc/userdb_extra

Got it working again. The userdb driver: passwd shouldnt point to the 
userdb_extra file and the passwd-file should be configured first. The 
sequence does matter, after the first hit it doesnt look futher.

Dunno if it matters, but you've used passwd with the file first, try 
using passwd-file before the passwd driver.
BTW: passdb and userdb are not consistent.

Bye,
