I'm running doveadm sync to sync a remote mailbox over ssh (the remote server is running 2.3.13) with a local mailbox (the local server is running 2.4.1).
I get the following errors: Error: brain M: Exporting mailbox INBOX failed: Mailbox attribute iteration failed: Internal error occurred. Refer to server log for more information. [2025-11-15 19:25:32] Error: cmd sync: Remote command returned error 75: ssh [email protected] doveadm dsync-server -u jamie-test dsync-server Does anyone have suggestions on how to fix? Also, any tips on how to increase logging verbosity would be great - I'm not getting anything in the logs. Here is the full transcript of the errors. Thanks for any suggestions! jamie Debug: Loading modules from directory: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/doveadm Debug: Skipping module doveadm_acl_plugin, because dlopen() failed:
