1) it was working by pure luck; it was never suposed to work
2) actually, there is; look at comment #6
3) for a reason - security
4) ??
It's not ignoring the issue. It's just that you are using 'mailbox'
path, which starts with 'maildir:' as a home variable. That's just
wrong, weather dovecot
I don't set the home field manually. It's set by Mandriva Directory
Server. I think that the error come from that mail and home are, on my
config, un
I find it very wrong to consider that as a user fault because :
1) it was working previously and al least one existing configuration
(mine) was
in my config, I've the location configured as :
mail_location = maildir:/home/mail/%u

Use only absolute paths. Even if relative paths would appear to work,
they might just as well break some day.
Unless we find that you are using only absolute
I'm using absolute path.
The problem is that the path was given by LDAP with :
user_attrs = mailbox=home (this is what is recommended in the
documentation)
It seems that, for whatever reason this string is passed directly to the
code and used as home. But because it starts with maildir:, it
home isn't a mail_location path. It's home path. In your ldap mailbox
should look like this:
/home/mail/x...@xyz.com
If it looks like:
maildir:/home/mail/x...@xyz.com
then you are using that wrong.
http://wiki.dovecot.org/UserDatabase/ExtraFields - those are extra
fields that are supported.
Marking bug as invalid since it shouldn't have wored anyway.
