我在CentOS机器上使用了Postfix，Dovecot和MySQL来build立一个邮件服务器，为一些虚拟用户提供服务，但由于某种原因，它并没有将电子邮件存储在正确的文件夹中。 Postfix和Dovecot都使用一个叫做vmail的系统用户，它的主目录设置为/ home / vmail
域名及其关联的电子邮件地址存储在MySQL数据库中，Postfix应在/ home / vmail中创build邮箱。
电子邮件应按照以下格式存储在文件夹中：
但是无论他们的目标地址是什么，他们都被转储到这个文件夹中：
因为使用任何电子邮件客户端访问这些邮件是不可能的。 一切（authentication，发送/接收电子邮件）的作品，电子邮件只是不存储他们应该在的地方。
使用Courier而不是Dovecot的类似设置按预期工作，所以我认为这只是与Dovecot相关的事情。
这是我的鸽舍configuration降到最低：
protocols = imap pop3 log_timestamp = "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S" mail_location = maildir:/home/vmail/%d/%n/Maildir ssl_cert = </etc/pki/dovecot/certs/dovecot.pem ssl_key = </etc/pki/dovecot/private/dovecot.pem namespace { type = private separator = . prefix = INBOX. inbox = yes } service auth { unix_listener auth-master { mode = 0600 user = vmail } unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { mode = 0666 user = postfix group = postfix } user = root } service auth-worker { user = root } protocol lda { log_path = /home/vmail/dovecot-deliver.log auth_socket_path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master postmaster_address = [email protected] } protocol pop3 { pop3_uidl_format = %08Xu%08Xv } passdb { driver = sql args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext } userdb { driver = static args = uid=5000 gid=5000 home=/home/vmail/%d/%n allow_all_users=yes } 这里是我从默认设置改变的后缀参数

检查你的/etc/postfix/master.cf文件，应该包含如下内容：
dovecot unix - nn - - pipe flags=DRhu user=vmail:vmail argv=/usr/libexec/dovecot/deliver -f ${sender} -d ${recipient}
