dovecot - Nov 2012 - doveadm import doesn't work

Hello,

we are running dovecot 2.0.4 on openSuse 11.2.
mailboxes are in mdbox-format on local filesystem.
we had a powerfailure resulting in many corrupted files and i had to 
restore some mailboxes.

as descibed in wiki, i tried :
doveadm import -u <username> mdbox:/path/to/backup/<username>/mdbox 
INBOX  all
or
doveadm import -u <username> mdbox:/path/to/backup/<username>/mdbox 
mdbox:/path/to/mailbox/<username>/mdbox  all

all i get is :
usage: doveadm [-Dv] [-f <formatter>] <command> [<args>]

   altmove      [-u <user>|-A] <search query>
   auth         [-a <auth socket path>] [-x <auth info>]
<user> [<password>]
   config       [doveconf parameters]
   director     add|flush|map|remove|status
   dump         [-t <type>] <path>
   expunge      [-u <user>|-A] <search query>
   fetch        [-u <user>|-A] <fields> <search query>
   force-resync [-u <user>|-A] <mailbox>
   help         <cmd>
   kick         [-a <anvil socket path>] [-f] <user
mask>[|]<ip/bits>
   log          find|reopen|test
   mailbox create|delete|list|mutf7|rename|status|subscribe|unsubscribe
   penalty      [-a <anvil socket path>] [<ip/bits>]
   purge        [-u <user>|-A]
   pw           [-l] [-p plaintext] [-r rounds] [-s scheme] [-u user] [-V]
   quota        get|recalc
   reload
   search       [-u <user>|-A] <search query>
   stop
   user         [-a <userdb socket path>] [-x <auth info>] <user
mask> [...]
   who          [-a <anvil socket path>] [-1] [<user mask>]
[<ip/bits>]

any idea, whats the problem?

Andreas Thomsen

Yes. It simply wasn't implemented in 2.0.4 which is ages old btw.
