[Dovecot] Missing folders after converting from Courier imap to dovecot
Hi, I?ve searched around for my problem but couldn?t find a solution. My setup: Centos 5.1 with postfix 2.5.1 (from source) and dovecot 1.0.10 (from source). I?m coming from an old Trustix 2.2 box with postfix 2.2.x and Courier imap with Maildir format mailboxes. For testing I?ve copied over some of the mailboxes from the old machine. After logging in to the new machine with Thunderbird only the incoming and trash folders appear in the Thunderbird sidebar all the rest are not showing up. When you send an email the sent folder appears with all mails this account has sent from the old machine, same with drafts etc. Access a folder directly and it will appear with all it?s content. This is some kind of nasty if you have to do this for several hundred folders. I?ve tried to fix the problem by changing the namespace private parameter "prefix" to ".". Also tried to rename courierimapuiddb to dovecot-uidlist. Both tricks don?t work. Unfortunately I can?t find the mentioned courier-dovecot-migrate.pl, maybe this would help... Any help and suggestion would be welcome. Best regards, Mike
