Hello
would it be possible to have mixed formats in Dovecot 2.1.x userland ?
I mean
MBOX format for INBOXes
Maildir format for IMAP folders ( to let users create subfolders )
You could, although I think it's a bad idea (more complex, mbox breaks
easlier, etc.) http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Namespaces#Examples
And ... ( at last I promise ) would it be possible to convert some IMAP
folders
during the transfert WITHOUT stopping the production ?
I mean , actually all mailboxes are in MBOX format ( INBOX and IMAP
folders )
what I would like to do is :
When a user is not connected I transfert his/her IMAP folders from the
server's local disk
to a NFS mounted bigger and expendable partition ( NetAPP filer's volume )
During this transfert I also would like to convert the IMAP folders
format from MBOX to Maildir
Is it possible ?
thank you
