dovecot - Jan 2008 - Converting from Maildir to dbox

Hi,

How do i convert from Maildir to dbox using the convert plugin?

My users reside in /home/user/Maildir.

In the dovecot.conf file i've set up 

convert_mail = dbox:%h 

but I am not sure about the syntax.  Im getting the error:

Couldn't create mailbox directory INBOX
Mailbox conversion failed, exiting

Thanks

mail_location = dbox:~/dbox
..
convert_mail = maildir:~/Maildir

Note that it'll rename files from maildir to dbox. Also although I've
done a lot of stress testing with dbox already, I don't know if it's
been in any real use yet. Backups would be a good idea.

Oh, and I hope you're using 1.1.betas, don't even try to use v1.0's
dbox
code.
