Dovecot doesn't sort mails in folders
by banderas20 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#59953)
Hi!
I'm setting up a Postfix + Dovecot mailserver.
Once Dovecot is installed, I edit "/etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-mail.conf" and set this directive as follows:
Code:mail_location = maildir:~/MaildirUpon restarting dovecot service, I send an email and I expect to have a folder named Code:/home/username/MaildirHowever, the folder doesn't exist and the mail only appears in
Code:/var/mail/usernameWhat am I missing?
Thanks!
