Edit those files to change the IDs.
chown recursively the /home/username in question
Likewise with /var/spool/mail/username in question
Delete and /tmp/ files belonging to the username, just in case anything
has lingered.

Did all of these steps.

But what have you changed the ID values to?  Have you set them lower
than 1000?  That will probably affect login.

my new uid would be 526 and I would keep the 1000 as a gid but renamed from cazzola to collab. If 526 is the problem how I can solve this?
