Hi, all.
I use dovecot-1.1.11 with OpenLDAP backend. but i found the
mail_location is not correct. How can i override mail_location setting
in dovecot.conf?
LDAP user data and dovecot config are attached below. in dovecot config,
mail_location is:
----
mail_location = maildir:/%Lh/%Ld/%Ln/:INDEX=/%Lh/%Ld/%Ln/
----
but the correct maildir should be 'homeDirectory' +
'mailMessageStore':
----
maildir:/home/vmail/a.cn/w/ww/www/
----
LDAP user:
----
dn: mail=www at a.cn,ou=Users,domainName=a.cn,o=domains,dc=iredmail,dc=org
objectClass: inetOrgPerson
objectClass: mailUser
objectClass: top

enabledService: mail
enabledService: smtp

mailMessageStore: a.cn/w/ww/www/

Try: mailMessageStore=mail Dovecot should detect Maildir vs. mbox itself by existance of cur subdir. But if relative paths work? As far as I know Dovecot cannot concat strings retrieved from a backend. A SQL-backend itself can do it and will pass the result back, but LDAP cannot. Depending on your user management it should be easier to add another LDAP attribute, say "mailDovecotLocation" with the prebuilt string, so you can add :INDEX, too.

Any suggestion about these LDAP attributes: homeDirectory mailMessageStore Both are absolute path? like /home/vmail/a.cn/w/ww/www/ or what? Need to add more attributes? How about mailbox INDEX? -- Best regards. Zhang Huangbin - Open Source Mail Server Solution for RHEL/CentOS 5.x: http://code.google.com/p/iredmail/
