dovecot - Jan 2007 - FreeBSD, Postfix, Cyrus SASL, Dovecot IMAP, SquirrelMail, Active Directory

Here's an update to my configuration.  I'm able to use Cyrus SASL to
enable SMTP AUTH in PostFix, validate user's mail addresses in Active
Directory, and store mail in maildir on FreeBSD.  I am currently able to
authenticate AD users with Dovecot and LDAP, but I'm getting the following
error in the log:

Error: IMAP(user at domain): Ambiguous mail location setting, don't know
what to do with it: user at domain (try prefixing it with mbox: or maildir:)
Error: IMAP(user at doman): Failed to create storage data: user at domain.
Error: child xxxxx (imap) returned error 89

I double-checked dovecot.conf, and the mail_location setting is
"mail_location = maildir:/usr/data/vmail/%u".

I'm not sure what could be happening, but I'm thinking this is the last
thing I need to get my configuration to work.

Your assistance is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

uxphreak

If it's not mail_location, then your userdb is returning user at domain as
"mail". So you user userdb ldap? Does your user_attrs contain
something=mail?
