i am having problems with my imap server - ERROR : Connection dropped by imap-server - 
this happens right after login

can anyone here please please query me to help troubleshoot courier-imap problems?

imapd: chdir "/my_virtual_domain.com/user": No such file or directory <===== is in my 
mail.log file. I am trying to login as a virtual user whose mailbox is at 
/home/vmail/my_virtual_domain.com/user

shouldn't imap pull the uid and gid for the user:group that 
/home/vmail/my_virtual_domain.com/user is owned by? how can i tell what the directory 
/my_virtual_domain.com/user in that error message is relative to (to make sure that 
imap is actually trying to chdir to /home/vmail/my_virtual_domain.com/user? Also, how 
can I tell what user:group imap is trying to change into that directory with?

strace output pretty much suggests that courier is trying to chdir to 
/my_virt_domain.com/user... nothing in the strace output suggests that that is NOT an 
absolute path. It should be chdir'ing into /home/vmail/my_virt_domain.com/user.

I can see that in the mysql query made by courier includes the homedir and maildir

the fields I CAN see data for in the strace output all look correct

but i see NOTHING in the strace output that shows what the values of homedir and 
maildir are

I don't know how to troubleshoot this further...

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
