Assunto: [imp] Batch import mbox files into individual folders
Para: imp@lists.horde.org
We are migrating from Openwebmail to Horde. Some of our users made a
lot of
subfolders in their Openwebmail account over the years, up to 250
per user.
We need to transfer them all to Horde. Mail folders are stored by
Openwebmail as individual mbox files for each folder so they import
into
Horde without problems.
Mail folders are not Horde files. Horde uses your system backend to
deal with your mail folders and INBOX. In other words, Horde uses
your IMAP or POP server (for exemple: Dovecot). For example, I use
Debian with Dovecot.
Yes I am aware of that. I use Dovecot, mysql and a virtual Maildir
system. When I create a subfolders in Horde I see it showing up as
(.hidden) folders in the vmail system. So my initial idea was to use
mb2md to convert the mbox files to maildir format, create .subfolders
in the vmail file system and copy the converted mbox files to them.
You need to use Dovecot tools to create/migrate the folders. Not
IMP/Horde and not just creating folders with "mkdir" either.
You might want to join the Dovecot mailing list, after learning a bit
more about dovecot tools, e.g. http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Tools/Doveadm
