Hello Robert,

Thanks for your answer.
Unfortunately it still doesn't work.

My postfix main.cf :

"
command_directory = /usr/sbin
daemon_directory = /usr/lib/postfix
program_directory = /usr/lib/postfix

smtpd_banner = $myhostname ESMTP $mail_name (Debian/GNU)
setgid_group = postdrop
biff = no

# appending .domain is the MUA's job.
append_dot_mydomain = no
myhostname = mirkonet.nl
alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases
alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases
myorigin = /etc/mailname
mydestination = lada.mirkonet.nl, mirkonet.nl, localhost
relayhost =
mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8
mailbox_command = procmail -a "$EXTENSION"
mailbox_size_limit = 0
recipient_delimiter = +
"

I included
"home_mailbox = Maildir/"
and reloaded postfix.

Any other suggestions?

Mirko

You need to tell postfix to store mail in your
/home/<username>/Maildir folder or tell the imap server to look in
/var/mail/<username>

Easiest way to fix this is probably set this var in your main.cf:
home_mailbox = Maildir/

and comment out:
#mail_spool_directory = /var/mail

Then run postfix reload.

mail will then be delivered to your home dir in maildir format (Both
of which are preferable,  IMHO).
