quota count is currently most recommended.

Hi Ranbir,

You should switch from "quota = maildir...." to another one, like
dict.
</div>
<div>
<br>
</div>
<div>
Converting your Public mailbox you could try this ( no guarantee .. just
guessing. make backup ! ):
</div>
<div>
doveadm -o
mail_location="maildir:/var/spool/mail/thesandhufamily.ca/public" sync
sdbox:/target/folder

Hi Everyone,
</div>
<div>
<br>
</div>
<div>
I migrated my maildir mailboxes to sdbox without any show stopping errors,
</div>
<div>
but I did see this during the migration and now I'm also seeing it in
the log:
</div>
<div>
<br>
</div>
<div>
Warning: quota: Namespace '' is not Maildir, skipping for Maildir++
quota
</div>
<div>
<br>
</div>
<div>
I'm not quite sure why this is happening. Any ideas?
</div>
<div>
<br>
</div>
<div>
I am using a "public" namespace for several mailboxes to share
emails:
</div>
<div>
<br>
</div>
<div>
# public namespace configuration
</div>
<div>
namespace {
</div>
<div>
type = public
</div>
<div>
# the default separator for Maildir is ".", so that is what
should be
</div>
<div>
# used automatically.
</div>
<div>
separator = .
</div>
<div>
prefix = Public.
</div>
<div>
location = maildir:/var/spool/mail/thesandhufamily.ca/public
</div>
<div>
subscriptions = no
</div>
<div>
}
</div>
<div>
<br>
</div>
<div>
Under the "public" dir in the old maildir setup, I have folders
configured for
</div>
<div>
various mail accounts. For example:
</div>
<div>
<br>
</div>
<div>
.Ads
</div>
<div>
.Junk
</div>
<div>
.Bills
</div>
<div>
<br>
</div>
<div>
etc.
</div>
<div>
<br>
</div>
<div>
These "users" are setup in a passwd file so that I can use a
different mail
</div>
<div>
storage location for them than the one they get from ldap (same as above).
</div>
<div>
<br>
</div>
<div>
Using dsync to migrate my other mailboxes was easy, but I don't know
how
</div>
<div>
to migrate these public mailboxes. I looked through the wiki and didn't
see
</div>
<div>
anything about how to do it. Could someone explain how I can migrate the
</div>
<div>
public mailboxes?
</div>
<div>

This is what worked for me (no errors): doveadm -o mail_location="maildir:/var/spool/mail/thesandhufamily.ca/public" sync sdbox:/var/spool/mail/thesandhufamily.ca/public-mail/ I was using a "." as the separator in my private inbox and public namespaces when I was using maildir. I still have "." set and don't appear to be having any issues now that I've migrated to sdbox. However, when I try to switch the separator to "/", I get errors like this: Error: namespace configuration error: list=yes namespace missing I had changed the "list" parameter for both namespaces to "children" and "no", but I still got the same error. I also can't access my mailboxes after changing the separator to "/". Changing the config back to "." returns me to a working setup. What am I missing/not understanding? Thanks in advance! -- Ranbir
