I can interprete your question in several ways, depending on what you are
looking for:
https://wiki2.dovecot.org/VirtualUsers/Home
- -> yes, you need a home *and* a separate mail directory for each user
Dovecot can derive the mail_location from home (using ~ or $h), but not
the other way round. Hence, you need to configure a home directory. Do
this als default in the userdb section or let it return by the userdb.
You need not configure Mail_location in Dovecot's conf files, if you
always return home and mail directory from your userdb.
