Hello all,

I'm a newbie,

I use: vmail, courier-imap (.tar.gz), maildrop (tar.gz), postfix(.deb), debian linux.

My problem is that I can't change the maildir where postfix (or maidrop) puts incoming mail. Instead of, /var/courier/vmail/, mais are delivered in /var/spool/mail but courier-imap do not check mails in this directory. I changed the mail_spool_directory = /var/courier/vmai/... and run "postfix reload" but the same problem.

What configuration file to change? main.cf? master.cf? maildrop? or ...?

Hi,

mail_spool_directory is the wrong key. Change home_mailbox to 'Maildir/' and leave mail_spool_directory at the default. The trailing slash (/) is important! Also have a look at http://www.firstpr.com.au/web-mail/RH71-Postfix-Courier-Maildrop-IMAP/

Cheers, Juri
