The indexes will be automatically rebuilt when users log into the new server. -- Stan> Le 08/03/2011 17:39, Stan Hoeppner a ?crit : >> Frank Bonnet put forth on 3/8/2011 9:54 AM: >>> Hello >>> >>> Is it possible to use compressed mailboxes ( MBOX format ) >>> with dovecot using a plugin ? >> >> What is your motivation? >>
