Hi Steffen,
Thank you so much for your quick reply!
I apparently missed it the first time.
I think this is close to what I need.
My only problem is that all of the
mail is currently in a Thunderbird
client (we don't leave messages on
our current POP3 server).
Could I set up each user with a migration
account, so they can drag/drop their
email to get them on the mail
server (in imap or pop3 if needed?)
and then somehow use fetchmail
to process the messages again to their
new real account (sieve & all)?

Our current email is outsourced and so we

Is there a best practice for moving mail
such that we can take advantage of the
hard link feature for all those older copies
that are currently in POP3 files?
It would also be nice to be able to auto file
things. I don't see the sieve filters being
activated when I copy mail in Thunderbird.
you could use fetchmail to get the messages from the POP3 box and pass them to
Dovecot deliver. So you can use Sieve filters (or not, if you turn Sieve off for
this).
Then let the messages spool to Maildir.
Then use fdupes to find duplicates and hardlink them.
Kind regards,
