I think the problem is in /etc/postfix/main.cf which has the following:

home_mailbox = Maildir/

Comment that out, reload postfix, and you'll see the old, familiar:

Odd :^(.

I have ll.2, but was continually updated/graded from late June and my main.cf has:

14:33 wahoo:~ > grep home_ /etc/postfix/main.cf # The home_mailbox parameter specifies the optional pathname of a #home_mailbox = Mailbox #home_mailbox = Maildir/

And it *was* not my doing. My mail is delivered to /var/mail/<user> by procmail, that which is not sorted into local directories under /home/<user>/mail

As I have slept two or three times since then, it is quite possible that the settings are from YaST2 which I cannot check as YaST2 is currently inoperable :^(.

Hi Is the FQDN in the myhostname variable correct?

On my system it is, but I don't see the significance in this respect?

Hi The OP has been upgrading and it would seem the main.cf has not been touched. If the FQDN has changed at some point it may not have been changed in main.cf.
