Lol, apologies for not searching on the forum before asking :S

The one on the post name, irm 0.5.0-rc2. I'm just using postfixadmin to add new users/mailboxes to the virtual domain. I'm not using that script you said (at least not directly).

but path on the first account (info@) is this:

/home/vmail/c/ca/ca*********/i/in/inf/info-2009.07.22.15.53.30/

Which version of iRedMail did you deploy? and how did you create these users? use 'tools/create_mail_user_*.sh'?

And, the *strange* maildir format is recommend for large-scale deployment for better performance.

Just downloaded the same package, installed on debian lenny, had the same problem ; fixed mysql table. working. Oh... i forget, i had the delete the mailbox and re-create it.

Yes indeed, but about the path, why the first account created during install has one, and the others other completely different :S

P.S.: I'll do the same and remain with the doubt

/home/vmail/c/ca/ca*********/i/in/inf/info-2009.07.22.15.53.30/

and on the rest of the mailboxes that i created is:

/home/vmail/ca*******/username

So obviusly those path doesn't match . Any clue about how to fix it? or why first account has that complicated path?
I was thinking on delete the first account and re create it so it matches the general maildir. No idea if it will break something :?.

mysql> USE vmail;
mysql> ALTER TABLE mailbox ALTER storagebasedirectory SET DEFAULT '/home/vmail';

After execute above command, you can use 'desc' command to check it out:

mysql> DESC mailbox;
+----------------------+--------------+------+-----+---------------------+-------+
| Field                | Type         | Null | Key | Default             | Extra |
+----------------------+--------------+------+-----+---------------------+-------+
| storagebasedirectory | varchar(255) | NO   |     | /home/vmail         |       |

You have to modify tools/create_mail_user_MySQL.sh, set correct 'STORAGE_BASE_DIRECTORY' before you create new users.

One (maybe dumb) question, i installed iRedMail from /home/user/iRedMail-0.5.0-RC2. Then, after installation was done, i moved iRedMail folder to /home/user/Installers/iRedMail, that has anything to do with the failure? in other words, is anything from the original installation directory used again (or referenced) during the normal server function? for example that create_user script in ../tools?, because maybe was my mistake for moving installation folder...

This issue should be fixed (for fresh installation) moment ago:

Thanks for your feedback.
