you downgrade?
Yes, because I'm switching from CentOS 6.5 to Ubuntu 14.04. On the
CentOS system I used the ATrpms repo. For Ubuntu I did not find any
appropriate 3rd party repo. So I'm going to use the standard repo.
Perhaps the official Dovecot Repo would be a better solution:
http://shop.dovecot.fi/home/8-dovecot-ee-repository-access.html
I'm not sure if I can use dsync for that. According to the Wiki [1] the
command to mirror my own mailbox should look like
do you change the storage as well? Or: why not transfer the mailboxes,
ACLs, scripts etc.pp. on file system level, e.g. using rsync?
On the new server I also changed some paths. For example the
mail_location is not in the users home folder, but in an sub folder like
it is suggested by the Dovecot wiki.
I also changed the location for the sieve scripts. So I thought it might
be easier to just let a tool like dsync transfer everything.
What I changed between these two systems is:
Old:
mail_location = maildir:/var/mail/vhosts/%d/%n
New:
mail_location = maildir:/var/vmail/%d/%n/maildir
Old:
sieve = /var/mail/vhosts/sieve-scripts/%d/%n/.dovecot.sieve
sieve_before = /var/mail/vhosts/sieve-scripts/before
sieve_dir = /var/mail/vhosts/sieve-scripts/%d/%n/sieve
New:
sieve = /var/vmail/%d/%n/sieve-scripts/.dovecot.sieve
sieve_before = /var/vmail/sieve-scripts/before
sieve_dir = /var/vmail/%d/%n/sieve-scripts/sieve
