Hello, I have some trouble using "doveadm altmove -r". Regular "doveadm altmove" is OK, selected mails were moved to alternate storage as expected. But I can't manage to get them back to original location, "doveadm altmove -r" has no effect. We are using Dovecot 2.3.4 (Debian Buster package). mail_location =

Hi, Your problem might be similar to mine a long time ago. IMO behavior of "doveadm altmove -r" command with mdbox format is different to sdbox format: - With sdbox format, when you move back a message to primary storage (aka default storage), only the message and the file containing it are affected. There is nothing impacted. - With mdbox format, a file in storage contains

Hi there, there is the ubuntu version 2.0.13 ov dovecot installed on our server. But in contrast to http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Tools/Doveadm/Altmove the option -r isn't supported in this version. altmove: invalid option -- 'r' doveadm altmove [-u <user>|-A] [-S <socket_path>] <search query> In which version of dovecot is this option supported? Thanks Lars

Hello again. When I use doveadm altmove, I notice that it may result in some very small storage files in either the primary or the alternate storage location. I'm not quite sure, but it almost seems like every storage file that contains messages to be moved is simply split into two parts, even if a part might only contain a single message. This seems quite curious, since the idea of

Hi, im wondering if it's possible to store old messages in a compressed mdbox on alternate storage. The main storage is uncompressed mdbox. I tried something like: doveadm -Dv -o "plugin/zlib_save=gz" altmove -u testuser sentbefore 8d Could someone tell me if it's possible and give me a hint how this can be done? I tried this with dovecot-2.2 Claus

I was thinking about documentation for alternate storage. We have a few mentions at: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/MailboxFormat/dbox http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Tools/Doveadm http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Tools/Doveadm/Altmove But I was thinking it would be helpful if there could be a page about alternate storage. I could write the page, but I currently have so many unknowns that I think it would be

Hello We are using Dovecot 2.0.17 with mdbox+zlib and we are evaluating alternative storage. These are the relevant settings mdbox_rotate_interval = 1d mdbox_rotate_size=60m [...] zlib_save_level = 9 # 1..9 zlib_save = gz # or bz2 [...] zlib plugin enabled in dovecot-lda These are my questions: 1? General mdbox question. We are happy usings zlib_save, but we would like to try bzip2

I would like to report a bug we are seeing on an new deployment here: Linux: Debian Jessie, inside a Docker container Dovecot version: 2.2.23 (806d709) / 2.2.23-1~bpo8+1 doveconf -n: http://pastebin.com/2xA2xuRw Filesystem: CephFS - Jewel After migrating our users from our old server to our new one we can't access a few mailboxes. Backtrace follows: root at dovecot:/# gdb --args

Hi list, I've just set up a 2.1.7 server, and have migrated a couple of accounts across from a 2.0.15 server, keeping the old configs. I have a strange problem on the new box in that altmove just doesn't work. I have my main storage under /home/email, indexes under /home/indexes and ALT under /home/email_archive. When I run the altmove command, the following broken symlink is created

In some folders I have hundred of such files, but they really are hardlinks to the same .temp file (for each folder), so they do not consume

Hello, i tried to move mails to an alt storage with the following command: doveadm altmove -u user at domain.de mailbox Inbox After that, the imap process produces a core dump (files has not been moved): Maillog: dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<user at domain.de>, method=PLAIN, rip=X.X.X.X, lip=X.X.X.X, mpid=5393, TLS, session=<83JiHqNdTwCsEAIf> dovecot: imap(user at

Hi, Here is the problem that occured: #sudo doveadm -D altmove -u vv at vito.pp.ua all works properly and moves all storage to alt dir. However, to move it back to default storage I add '-r' by manual: #sudo doveadm -D altmove -u vv at vito.pp.ua -r all That seems behave like the original command ignoring '-r'. my dovecot conf: # 2.3.4.1 (f79e8e7e4): /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf

Hi all, I have some questions about hardlinks, alternate storage and compression. I already scanned the list for related information and I have an idea of how things works, but I would like to have a definite answer.
