After V1.2 had been up for a while, I started seeing tons of syslog error messages like this: Nov 5 09:11:52 mercury mail:err|error dovecot: IMAP(sdean): stat(/var/dcindx/sdean/.imap/DadEstate) failed: Permission denied (euid=202(sdean) egid=200(hcrc) missing +x perm: /var/dcindx) Ownernship and Permissions are: The index filesystem 2726 root at mercury:/var/dcindx ## ls -ald drwx--S--- 3946 dovecot system 192512 Nov 05 08:59 ./ A user's directory is...

...> else > export MAIL=mbox:$HOME/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/$USER > fi > Questions: 1) What does explicitly specifying MAIL this way override? The dovecot.conf mail_location variable? 2) My mail_location var is defined as: mail_location: mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/spool/mail/%u:INDEX=/var/dcindx/%u and my prospective maildir INBOX and mail folder root is to be ~/Maildir. So would I change the above to: > if [ -d $HOME/Maildir ]; then > export MAIL=maildir:$HOME/Maildir:INDEX=/var/dcindx/$USER > else > export MAIL=mbox:$HOME/mail:INBOX=/var/spool/mail/$USER: > INDEX=/v...

It appears that the user index directories created under DC1.1 look like this (here for /var/dcindx/cep): drwx--S--- 5 cep sys 256 Nov 13 14:26 cep/ while those created under...
