It was an assumption based on the fact that postfix created such directory automatically. My post was meant more as a question then a statement. sorry.

I have read the tutorials here line by line: http://switch.richard5.net/isp-in-a-box-v2/setting-up-maildrop/

but I still get the error above. I also gave permission they way it suggested in the guide but still noting. The only difference I have from that guide is that my user is called 'virtual' rather then 'vmail' and that my mail should be stored in '/var/spool/mail/virtual/'. I also tried giving permission on this directory to both 'virtual' and 'postfix' but still I get the same error "Unable to open mailbox".

I must admit I am new to the Linux environment although I know the basic stuff. I tried to do more re-search on the internet but I can't understand where my configuration is bad.
