I'm Trying to get a secure mail server going and running into some snags: First things first - After installing postfix (which seems to work when testing) and cyrus-sasl2, I opted for the Maildir/ config option in my main.cf but no ~/user/Maildir/ was every created. I also installed Dovecot IMAP and Procmail as I continued in the process thinking they might pick up the slack. Still no generated Maildir/. When I try to check /var/spool/mail, there are also no user folders present. Was there a step in the process I missed? Everything was installed from a freshly cvsup'd and portsnap'd ports tree with no compile errors to speak of. Zachary J Welch President Tech N' Taboodle 2081 E.
