Zitat von Josef Wolf <[email protected]>:
Any thougths?
Deliver IMHO should be run directly by the MTA, if possible, because being run by procmail you loose the capability of using SIEVE.
The dovecot way to convert mailbox formats is the dsync (doveadm sync) command, which is the Swiss army knife for this kind of purpose.
And if you are in need of converting a bunch of inboxes, one after another, keep in mind that we got the mail_location = auto: command, where dovecot decides on runtime by the name of the underlyding subfolder about the mail format to be used.
So for example, dovecot can distinguish between ~/Maildir, ~/Mail, ~/mdbox and others. This gives you the tools at hand to migrate literally tens of thousands of mailboxes, while your services are running normally, one after another.
