similar to: Migration Problem UW-IMAP to Dovecot Maildir

Greetings. I've got a poorly conceived and implemented system I'm trying to migrate off of. Right now we've got 20K accounts or so, in mbox form, under UW-IMAP. Eventually we're going to move to Maildir format, but the first step is to move to Dovecot on one of our imap servers as a proof of concept. In other words, all config changes have to take place on the dovecot

Hi all We experience some unexpected behavior with dovecot. It happens that emails marked as read get marked as unread (MUA is Thunderbird on port 143). Unfortunately this happens randomly, reproducing this issue is difficult. We could not find any pattern, it happens rarely. We are running dovecot version 2.2.24 on Debian Jessie (backports repository). /root at dovecot01:~# dovecot --version//

Hi there We are running Cyrus-to-Dovecot migrations using dsync on destination Dovecot server (Debian Stretch / latest Dovecot 2.3.7.2 from community repo) like this: $ doveadm -o mail_fsync=never backup -R -u <username> imapc: For imapc configuration to connect to remote Cyrus server, see below [1]. While this works great for hundreds of mailaccounts, dsync fails with the following

Hi, I am doing a mass migration of users from Cyrus imap on a solaris server to dovecot 1:2.2.9-1ubuntu1 and am getting this weird issue with dsync if I try to do a "full" sync. Debug output below: dsync(user at example.com): Error: Mailbox INBOX: Save commit failed: Mailbox was deleted under us dsync(user at example.com): Debug: brain M: out box 'INBOX'

i plan to switch from uw-imap to dovecot on a couple of medium size systems and so i have written a conversion tool that understands mbox, mbx, and mix formats and converts to maildir format while trying to preserve uid info, keywords, flags, subscriptions, etc. it seems to work for me now, but i think some feedback might be useful. so if you have some files to convert and a desire to help,

Hi I am trying to do mailbox migrations using doveadm to a server that I do not have root access on without success. Is this possible?

Hello! In this email you can find a configuration primer for a Migration from UW IMAP with pine, Thunderbird and squirrelmail as client. For compatibility the mbox format is used. A description for pine with imap acces without entering any password is also discussed. Please use dovecot 1.0beta1 or later for correct handling with pine. Short overview of Mail folders:

Hi, you can't migrate by pushing to imapc: or pop3c: host. It's not supported and in fact is not even possible without losing data. you need to pull the mails by running doveadm on the new server.

Hello everybody, after upgrading dovecot on a debian wheezy installation from the standard package version (dovecot 2.1.7) to dovecot 2.2.13-11 from wheezy-backports, i noticed some errors in my logs...

Hi folks, I have an old server running qmail with several years of mails in maildir format I want to migrate to a new server, without requiring fresh client download of everything. Old server is debian 6(?). Local IP is 192.168.0.1. New server is Debian 10, local IP is 192.168.0.25. I have dovecot 2.3.4.1 (latest from apt stable) installed and apparently working - if I manually copy the home

Hi Christian, may be the issue is related to this other post: http://dovecot.org/pipermail/dovecot/2015-September/102094.html Anyway, what I can tell you is that for every? user account,? for every folders created after the last doveadm fts rescan for that user, dovecot does not invoke indexer. A new rescan fix the problem for all the folders created up to that moment. I was wondering if I was

Hi all, I'm trying to migrate messages from icewarp (merak) mailserver to dovecot via dsync, IMAP migration is looking fine, but I'm unable to migrate pop3 uidls from originating server, probably is something wrong with configuration, but I don't know what. The only documentation i found is on the wiki: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Migration/Dsync where is bad writen mail_plugins =

Hello, on my debian wheezy installation, I implemented fts plugin with solr as indexing system. I noticed that if a user creates a new folder, that folder it is ignored by dovecot indexing until a doveadm fts rescan is performed for that user. From that time on everything works ok on that folder. As a test I set fts_autoindex=yes and put in that folder a brand new mail never indexed before. in

Hi, I'm running dsync migrations using imapc and the source IMAP server is just too slow. It has taken 8 hours to migrate a mailbox with 47,000 messages. It seems most of the mailboxes are never accessed with IMAP, so it would be just as good to migrate them via POP3 which should work faster in my case. Is this actually meant to work? doveadm -D -o pop3c_user=xxxxxx at example.com -o

Hello, I'm playing around with Dovecot 2.0 beta 4. If I use dsync to convert a users mail stored in Maildir format to mdbox format, the subscriptions file in the new mdbox is created using the wrong mailbox separator ('.') leading to folders within folders not being readable by clients using the subscription feature.
