Hi We recently installed a dovecot postfix roundcube debian wheezy serverIt is now in production and we are feeling our way as we progressivelyadd new users to this local server. I noticed that dovecot is creating user directory structures for unknown users withinour domain in /var/vmail, even though we have setup a static users.conf db file. I tried omiting the "allow_all_users=yes" parameter but that doesn't seem to be linked to this issue Sorry if this has been asked a number of times already Is there an easy way to search the archives of this mailinglist ?
