dsync: INBOX Can't be deleted

2016-01-23 Thread Christoph Adomeit 
Hi,

I am Migrating an old cyrus mailserver to dovecot.

in the old cyrus Mailserver all User Mailboxes are
sub-mailboxes of their INBOX.

I have to preserve that structure.

During Migration with dsync I get these Errors:

Error: Mailbox INBOX sync: mailbox_delete failed: INBOX can't be deleted

Is there a way to work around these Errors ?

Thanks
  Christoph

for multiple advanced imap settings at migration you might use imapsync
not dsync

Mailbox doesn't exist: test

2016-01-23 Thread @lbutlr 
I’ve been getting an error when trying to save mail based on address extensions 
where dovecot is not creating the mailbox:

dovecot: lda(u...@example.com): msgid=: save failed to 
open mailbox test: Mailbox doesn't exist: test

Is this is as simple as adding lda_mailbox_autocreate = yes to my conf file, 
and does it go at the ‘top’ level of the file, or does it need to be in some 
sort of clause?

can you post doveconf -n and the command line you are invoking when 
executing dsync?

Sure but imapsync does not preserve message UID's which means that users 
end up redownloading all their messages or message/UID mismatches will 
happen.
