The command I'm currently using is: rsync -rltgovDHP --delete --delete-excluded --exclude-from '/path/to/excludes.txt' /mnt/oldvmail/example.com/ /var/vmail/example.com/ On the old server, dovecot is configured to just use .../example.com/user for the maildirs. On the target server, I want to change this to .../example.com/user/Maildir I...
