You need to update the LDAP attribute "homeDirectory" of this user with tool like "ldapvi" (command line) or "phpldapadmin" (web).

Re: Unable to change mailbox directory structer..

Thank you for your reply.

I am able to change the existing user mail directory.

But if i create a new user, mail directory of it getting created like /t/e/s/test format only, Where i can change the default mailox directory structure, so every user will get created with required mail directory format only

Re: Unable to change mailbox directory structer..

Thank you Zhang,

I have get this working by putting below values in /opt/www/iredadmin/settings.py  file.

MAILDIR_HASHED = False
MAILDIR_PREPEND_DOMAIN = True
MAILDIR_APPEND_TIMESTAMP = False

It requires to restart iredmail, nginx and uwsgi service.

Restarting only "iredadmin" service is enough, no nginx or uwsgi.
