And please let me add that the example in
"dovecot-1.0.rc31/doc/wiki/Plugins.Convert.txt" reads
| UW-IMAP conversion
| ------------------
|
| If your mailboxes exist in home directory among other files, you'll need to
| use:
|
| plugin {
| convert_mail = mbox:~/:INBOX=/var/mail/%u
| convert_skip_broken_mailboxes=yes
Currently this doesn't work :-(
