similar to: opening a maildir ?

Dear Rick, Thanks for your feedback. I think rsync might be a better option. Its(imap server)with gmail so I dont think it would work . Furthermore I am running a linux system(Ubuntu 14.04 to be precise). Does Mercury 32 support it? >From the site it seems not. Please advise.

Dear Rick, Thanks. I guess I'll have to install dovecot. I am not sure what the parameter for the -host2 should be(apart from localhost? ) Its my first time doing dovecot on a Linux desktop. I was thinking of using Thunderbird to download all mails but I guess that will be too long of a process. On Friday, August 7, 2015, Rick Romero <rick at havokmon.com> wrote: > Hi Kevin, >

Hi, I am trying to back up my IMAP server to a hard drive. Later I intend to extract all mails for attachments. What do you reckon is the best too to perform this ? Imapsync or Thunderbird (or something else, please recommend) One problem I am having with imapsync is the setting for host2 (being a localhost computer). How does one set a parameter for host2 being a desktop computer. Thanks Kevin

Hello, I need to recompile dovecot on ubuntu 14.04 What would be the easiest way to do this?

Hello, Yesterday I tried to back up a 40GB maildir . I tried to move the maildir from home to external HDD but failed. Decided then to compress it(which took several hours). Now changing the disk format from FAT to exFAT to allow the transfer for the large compressed file. How does one back up emails on a external drive? Some advice would be greatly appreciated.

Dear Christian, Thanks for your feedback. The HDD will not accept larger than 4GB (as its in FAT format). Its a new external HDD. Thinking of the best format(that would work with Mac , Win and Linux) .seems like a challenge. What's your view on NTFS? And why not exFAT?

Dear Thomas, >From what I have read is that I cannot automatically install dovecot, I would need to add the repos to my repo list and then use pining to install the latest version.

Dear Marc, Thanks for your feedback! 1. I store it in MySQL. 2. I will add a cronjob to run Solr if I can figure out why its not working on test runs. Maybe I might try to setup a cronjob for solr to avoid having to manually start it everytime. 3. Will turn on the mail_debug in dovecot.conf . Where will it log the problems?

Dovecot uses a very dynamic development model. There are old versions like 2.0.9 which people still try to get help with since they are in some dusted distro repository, but known to have partially broken features... Looking

Dear Steve, Very valuable info. Appreciate it and will be careful when using terms. Actually I think I should just use rsync without compressing. The reason why I started compressing was because the GUI gave some errors when I was trying to copy then files. I'll just rsync the data from my laptop HDD to my external drive(without compressing) Thanks Kevin On Sunday, August 9, 2015, Steve

Hi Kevin, Ahh. When you said desktop, I assumed you meant Windows.? Dovecot is an IMAP Server, so I assume that was the server you wanted to backup. If you're running Linux, then you could run Dovecot on it and use IMAPSync to sync your Gmail locally.

Hi, I am trying to backup multiple mail accounts by using imapsync and Dovecot on my local machine. I am using maildir as a mail storage format and currently have the following setting on my local machine :- mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir I am afraid that if I imapsync multiple accounts they will all get stored in the same location. Is there a way to seperate the accounts based on the email
