To wherever you will find the account's default mailbox.

What you should do is set the home directory field to, well, a home
directory for the account, which contains, amongst other things
$HOME/Maildir, which would be the account's mailbox, which will happen to be
the default location for mailboxes.

By trying to come up with some odd setup where all your accounts share the
same home directory, but a different mailbox, you're just making things more
complicated than they need to be, and you will gain absolutely nothing for
it. When, later, you perhaps decide to begin using maildrop, and mail
filtering, you will be for a shock to discover that you can't use individual
maildrop recipes if everyone's home directory is the same.
