Then, why are you trying to tell alpine to access the files directly, instead of using dovecot?

Even I actually use two versions of alpine, one that I compiled with the patch years ago and the latest that supports the new xoauth2 authentication. It's been on my to-do list for years to go around to the faf of fetching all the sources integrating the patch and building an alpine that supports both at the same time. Also on my to-do list is to convince Eduardo Chappa to integrate the patch.I personally prefer mbox over Maidir for historical reason and because I am lazy and Maildir probably require me to revise all my old settings, procmail rules, management scripts, ... but it is the de facto standard for many configurations and it is better for backup/sync ...
Dovecot works fine with mbox.
I do not use Maildir.
