Yea, although it's better not to have home directory be in the maildir
root since the created files conflict with the mailbox namespace (eg.
you can't create "dovecot.sieve" named mailbox, and that file might
actually show up as a non-selectable mailbox). You could instead use eg.
Maildir/home as the home dir.
