Yes, you're correct the path should be
D:\\vdomains\\dover\\mail\\users\\<username> and I have done that, however,
since Imail creates the \users\<username> on it's own I run into troubles.

I can specify everything up to D:\\vdomains\\dover\\mail\\ and I get the
correct path up to that point, but everything after that is mucked up.  It
ends up being D:\vdomains\dover\mail\user<username>.  I have tried several
variations and wildcards to no avail.  If I try to specify the full path as
D:\\vdomains\\dover\\mail\\users\\  Then I get a path something like this.
D:\vdomains\dover\mail\users\users\username.

I'm also running into other issues where Unix treats "b" as a backspace and
"t" as a tab and so forth  so if a user starts with the letter "B" or "T"
everything gets mucked up as well.

I know this is not an Imail problem so if anyone could point me to a better
place to post this question, I would greatly appreciate the assistance.
