Hi Timo,
Thank you very much for the information. I had seen the DSync page but
I was confused as to how to configure it. I'd definitely love to be
able to get the proper dsync migration working as I have some clients
who use POP3 and others who use IMAP and I want to make this seamless
for all if possible.
Could you please elaborate on how I specify the alternate dovecot.conf?
I've gone through the man pages and I don't see anything referencing -c
for doveadm? Or do you mean that I should be running the full dovecot
server process from the source server with an alternate configuration?
If I change the name space won't it fail to find the local folders in
their mailbox?
Cheers,
Mark

Hi everyone,
I'm hoping I am just missing something obvious - but I cannot seem to
get a one-way migration dsync working between two Dovecot servers
because the Prefix configuration is different.
I think a regular dsync -> dsync migration won't work then directly,
because it assumes similar source and destination namespaces. One
possibility would be that if you start dsync from the destination
server, you simply point it to a configuration with a similar
namespace config (via -c dovecot.conf) as the source. It should still
write everything correctly so that afterwards you can run with the
wanted the namespace prefix (i.e. prefix can be changed in
dovecot.conf without having to modify any per-user files). Another
possibility would be to do imapc sync and set imapc_prefix=INBOX. -
