I've gone over the config files over and over again and i can't seem til find out what is the matter. I've tried lots of things to correct what ever is wrong with the mailboxes. I tried letting postfix create the directories, but that didn't work , I tried creating them with maildirmake, but that didn't work either. I'm about to send my self away to the big server room in the sky! Would someone please help me....
I'm using Debian Sarge. And I tried the The Perfect Setup - Debian Sarge (3.1) Howto. I installed ISPConfig but then removed it again since I found that is wasn't what i needed.

So you're using virtual mailboxes. Did you follow this tutorial: http://www.howtoforge.com/virtual_postfix_mysql_quota_courier Are ou unable to send or to receive emails, or both? Anything in the mail log /var/log/mail.log?
