Hi all,
Hopefully, I'm sending this to the right place...
Can someone guide me on changing the Maildir messages files
back to the single file format I used to have instead of the
dovecot.index /cur /tmp /new format my newer server currently
has. I'm running dovecot v1.2.9 postfix v2.7 on Ubuntu v10.4
Thanks,
Nick. . . . .

I'm running dovecot v1.2.9 postfix v2.7 on Ubuntu v10.4i don't really understand why you want to do it, single file mailboxes are plain inefficient. maybe - just as in article below http://www.bishnet.net/tim/blog/tag/maildir-to-mbox/ you like archive in such format
Hi Wojciech
Thanks for your comeback..

I'm trying to switch dovecot to MBox, not just make archives.
BTW: I use http://yergler.net/projects/one-off/maildir-to-mbox as
it's much smaller and very simple to use to make archives.
Does anyone else know the correct way to either switch the
existing Maildir multiple file format to the single MBox file
format. Failing that, though it will mean a LOT of work, how do I
get dovecot to work in future in MBox single file format.
I've entered 'mail_location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/%h/%u' in the
'dovecot.conf', but it still saves each message in a file of its
own in the /new /cur /tmp directories ??
