dovecot - Jan 2012 - resolve mail_home ?

I now have "mail_home = /srv/mailstore/%256RHu/%d/%n". Is there any
way
of asking dovecot where a user's home directory is?

It's not in "doveadm user":

	$ doveadm user -f home janfrode at lyse.net
	$ doveadm user janfrode at tanso.net
	userdb: janfrode at tanso.net
  	  mail      : mdbox:~/mdbox
  	  quota_rule: *:storage=1048576

Alternatively, is there an easy way to calculate the %256RHu hash ?

Right, because it's a default setting, not something that comes from a
userdb lookup.

Nope..

Maybe a new command, or maybe a parameter to doveadm user that would
show mail_uid/gid/home. Or maybe something that dumps config output with
%vars expanded to the given user. Hmm.

That comand/paramater should be great for our backup scripts in our 
hashed mdboxes tree, we are using now slocate...
