Script times out on login of user with no home directory.

[Flyte]

I created a user without a home directory, then tried to log in to their webmail using Roundcube and Dovecot as the IMAP server. Roundcube just reaches the end of the 120 second execution time in imap.inc and Dovecot gives me the following error:

dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<jaden>, method=PLAIN, rip=::ffff:127.0.0.1, lip=::ffff:127.0.0.1, secured
dovecot: IMAP(jaden): mbox: Can't create root IMAP folder /home/jaden/mail: Permission denied
dovecot: IMAP(jaden): MAIL environment missing and autodetection failed (home /home/jaden)
Dec  2 19:46:52 server52273 dovecot: child 22921 (imap) returned error 89

I can fix the problem with dovecot no worries, but it seems to be an un-handled exception on roundcube's part.

This is not a bug. It the IMAP server does not close the connection, RoundCube waits. You should make a tcpdump on the imap ort to figure out what messages are send between RoundCube and the IMAP server.
