dovecot - Feb 2014 - Error "Initializing mail storage ..." after upgrading to 2.2.10

Hi,

I did the upgrade frpom 1.2.x to 2.2.10 and had some warnings/errors on
a very few accounts/mailboxes. All of them where permission related and
solved.

Dovecot rocks again.

But on one mailbox I do get an error:

Error: user rechnnugseingang-animationsinstitut: Initialization failed:
Initializing mail storage from mail_location setting failed

Error: Invalid user settings. Refer to server log for more information.

There is a homedirectory and the permissions are set like on all other
accounts.

The username is quite long (35 characters) but an other one with 34 is
working fine.

And before the upgrade there was no error.


	Thnaks for any help or hint. Regards . G?tz

Is above error the only error in the log?

I do not have such long names ...

I suggest to turn on mail_debug, then you see all paths a.s.o.
