Postfix doesn't receive mails at the proper place

I have installed postfix+dovecot+squirrelmail+sasl in Debian Squeeze. I can send email through squirrelmail, but can't receive mails there. I can view received mails only through cat /var/mail/user. Also it created /var/mail/u/user dirs where ls list inbox INBOX INBOX.Drafts INBOX.Sent (where the sent messages are stored in squirrelmail) INBOX.Trash, so I think that I should redirect the inbox from /var/mail/user to /var/mail/u/user/inbox. The section in dovecot is:

mail_location=maildir:/var/mail/%u/Maildir also added in main.cf file of postfix: home_mailbox=Maildir/, but nothing.
