dovecot - Apr 2011 - What is the recommended way to move a message from one mailbox to another using CLI

What is the recommended way to move a message from one mailbox to another
using CLI - serverside commands ?

Since IMAP does not support transactional moves between mailboxes - The only
thing that comes to my mind is this operation:

1) extract message from mailbox A using "doveadm fetch"
2) inject message into mailbox B using "dovecot-lda"
3) expunge message from mailbox A using "doveadm expunge"

it this the right solution ?

One problem with above approach is that injecting through
"dovecot-lda" will
trigger the sieve script - which I'm not interested in since the message
have already been injected and processed once before - at delivery...

Any advice is much welcome

If you are using maildir, you can just mv the file.

It's union rules. There's nothing we can do about it. Sorry.

Damn I'm stuck on 2.0.11 until the FreeBSD port comes through...

Thanks in advance
