I would like to relocate the subfolders of the Sent folder to a different location. Now send messages mail is stored in mbox format at the location /home/users/testuser/mail/.Sent. I would like to store the subfolders Sent/2017 and Sent/2018 at the location /home/archive/users/testuser/.Sent.2017 and /home/archive/users/testuser/.Sent.2018 Is this even possible? I am using currently using this mail_location: mail_location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/spool/mail/%u:CONTROL=~/mail/control:INDEX=/var/d ovecot/%u/index:LAYOUT=maildir++ /var/dovecot is on a ssd /var/spool/mail is on sda ~/mail is on sdb with these folders [@mail]# ls -ac1 .folderc .Drafts .foldera control .Trash.folderc .folderb .Sent .Sent.2018 .Trash

I think sdbox or mdbox format is what you are looking for> On 2 Dec 2018, at 09:47, Marc Roos <M.Roos at f1-outsourcing.eu> wrote: > > > No one an idea?
