Good changes, but you missed a small detail:
- mail_location = $mailbox_format:~/Mail:INBOX=~/Mail/Inbox:LAYOUT=fs
After migrating my familys Email server I noticed that mail folders dont show up as they should. The reason for that was the removal of the LAYOUT=fs option here.
Since dovecot 2.4, you have to specify it with a different variable instead:
mailbox_list_layout=fs
By default, your current configuration would assume all Mail folders to start with a dot, f.e. ".Sent" or ".Trash"
Previous versions of emailwiz used a filesystem layout that created folders without the dot, "Sent" or "trash"

Hi norbjert
I am sorry for this, I will send a fix right now.
mailbox_list_layout = fs must appear explicitly in the config file even though it's the default value used according to https://doc.dovecot.org/2.4.1/core/config/mail_location.html#mailbox_list_layout If not set the folders will appear as .Drafts .Junk .Sent .Trash in the user's Mail directory instead of Drafts Junk Sent and Trash.
