You can return `mail` attribute from your userdb (or passdb) to override the
default mail_location.

Ensure that `doveadm user targetuser` shows `mail` pointing to correct location.
You can use ~/ with mail.

I don't want to override the default mail_location, i need 3 different 
mail_locations for each user.
