Hi Zhang,

Thanks for the quick reply.

I've changed the storage base directory in both settings.ini   in /var/www/iredadmin     and the shell script provided with iRedadmin   in ../tools/create_mail_user_Openldap.sh 

And I am adding a new domain from iredadmin    not from postfixadmin.. 

LDAP is being used as backend for storing mails.. I havn't changed anything other than the mentioned settings..

Thanks,
Sandeep Singh

Yes, i did many times,,
still no luck...

I don't know how the emails are working..  and when i go to the phpldapadmin and see properties for each email address under Users OU
i can see that the user's home directory and default storage path is what i've set in the script..
But there is no directory present physically on the server file system  that is what driving me crazy..

Here  are the logs from dovecot.log and sieve.log

Okay, now somehow everything is working fine... i can see the new directories being created in /email folder and the directry structure....

Okay what i did was i deleted mydomain1.com from phpldapadmin

created mydomain1.com again from iredadmin with two users.. logged into roundcube with user1 and sent out one two test mails to mydomain2.com and some other domains.. and now i can see the directory structure..

What i am thinking is if i just create a domain from iredadmin  and don't use it (send and recive mail) then the directory structure is not created...

It gets created the moment i sent out first email out... am i corrct??

Thanks,
Sandeep

Thanks for the information Zhang.. I must say iRedmail is a great project...

All the best for your future developments.
