help with variables for maildir_name_hook

[Thomas Boehm]

Hi all,

I'm trying to add ":LAYOUT=fs" to the end of the value in the maildir column of the mailbox table. It looks like maildir_name_hook does exactly what I want. I put this in my config.local.php

$CONF['maildir_name_hook'] = 'layout_fs';
function layout_fs($domain, $user) {
    $layout = ":LAYOUT=fs";
    return sprintf("%s/%s/%s", $domain, $user, $layout);
}

It works, but $user contains the domain too. Is there another variable I can use instead which only contains the local part of $user? If not, what string operation can I use to cut everything from the @ of $user?

I tried

function layout_fs($domain, $user) {
    $layout = ":LAYOUT=fs";
    $dir = before('@', '$user');
    return sprintf("%s/%s/%s", $domain, $dir, $layout);
}

but when adding the mailbox I only get a white page and the mailbox is not added.

Thanks
Thomas

Solved it after a bit more research.

$dir = substr($user, 0, strpos($user, '@'));

seems to work.

If someone's wondering, what I'm trying to do. I want to use '/' as separator instead of the default '.'

Edit: It doesnt work as expected. Now new emails are delivered to a file called ":LAYOUT=fs" in the root of the virtual mailbox. I guess I need to configure it in Dovecot directly.
