Topic: vmail storage location(s) / are multiple locations possible?

==== Required information ====
- iRedMail version: v0.8.7
- Store mail accounts in which backend (LDAP/MySQL/PGSQL): PGSQL
- Linux/BSD distribution name and version: Centos 6.5, Linux 3.14.4-x86_64-linode40 on x86_64
- Related log if you're reporting an issue: n/a
====

Question, can you specify / create multiple user accounts that each have a different mail storage location?

And if so, how / what changes need to be made? I see in the iredadmin panel under user profile settings > advanced, you can change the mail store location. Is it that simple? Thanks.

ok, one update:

after creating a new user, i copied it's newly created folder structure under the default of /var/vmail/..... into my new desired location, then i redefined the user advanced settings (under iredadmin) to point to the new location and it's working fine.

so, is this the best method if i wish to offload certain accounts to a different storage location?

Thanks always for your help.
