New to dovecot admin, question about using LDAP for user-specific values
I am new to dovecot administration. I?ve read the Wiki but that hasn?t given me the understanding I need.
When I query my LDAP (on macOS) on a value for user ?gerben?, I can get that:
dumbledore:~ gerben$ dscl /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 -read /users/gerben GeneratedUID
GeneratedUID: 780D870E-6B00-478E-AB70-3D3307215A82
I would like to use that value in dovecot settings, e.g. something like

dovecot replication - new and cur folders on mx1 and mx2
It might have a noticeable effect on clients.
I encountered (probably triggered by this in some way?) that I was unable to het the 'read' bit set in macOS Mail.app. Maybe (as I am doing HA with round robin) the Mail.app client got to one dovecot repository on one tcp connection and then on the other.
Is there a reason why syncing tis move from new to cur is a bad idea?

Rsync order of maginitude slower with twice as large directory
I am in the habit of syncing my /usr/local tree over several computers
(all Mac OS X). Recently my /usr/local tree has doubled in size, from
300,000 files to 600,000 files because I have added a large subversion
checkout (TeX Live). As a result, rsync has become a time hog. Instead
of a minute or two or so to calculate what needs to be sent over,
suddenly this process takes 18-20 minutes,

Is it safe to mix dovecot import/backup/sync between dovecot versions 2.2.30.2 and 2.3.7.1?
I am migrating a server. The old one uses dovecot 2.2.30.2 and the new one 2.3.7.1. I don?t want to use any tool that might influence flags on messages. I am using Maildir format on both ends and I have a way to let one server access the data on the other (either using an rsync or a direct access).
Could I set up a sync between both to create a smooth migration?

dovecot replication - new and cur folders on mx1 and mx2
I can confirm this in a slightly different setting, but still using two-way sync between two dovecots. On e is 2.3.19.1 running on macOS Monterey, the other is 2.3.20 running in an alpine container on Ubuntu.

replicator: Panic: data stack: Out of memory when allocating 268435496 bytes
One step further in my quest to create a replacement mail server.
I now have my old mail server (2.3.19.1, macOS + MacPorts) and my new (2.3.20, Alpine Linux, Docker, apk package). When I turn on replication it works, but, after a while I see:

replicator: Panic: data stack: Out of memory when allocating 268435496 bytes
How problematic is it to have
default_vsz_limit = 0
in dovecot.conf? macOS+MacPorts had this as a requirement even.

Trouble using reverse dsync backup (log in successful but almost nothing happens)
I am migrating an old dovecot 2.2.30 (macOS High SIerra, macO S Server) to a new server with dovecot 2.3.7 (macOS Mojave, macports).
To get the data over, I?m trying to do a reverse backup with doveadm between an old and a new mail server, but failing to do so. I?m trying (from the new server, the old server is 192.168.2.67):
doveadm -Dv \

replicator: Panic: data stack: Out of memory when allocating 268435496 bytes
ok a little bit more info ....
My servers all run under FreeBSD 12.xx
which was also the base for the apple operating system origionally.
setting default_vsz_limit = 0 i seem to remember trying with no so great
results
setting to zero can cause memory over runs (espically with replication)
etc i found that when i used the config i sent eariler (vsz_limit is
defaulted (not set )) everything

Migrating users from a 2.0.19 to a 2.2.24 installation
Hello,
I am currently still running an older dovecot (2.0.19apple1 on Mac OS X 10.8.5) and I want to migrate my users to a new server (macOS 10.12 with Server 5, which contains dovecot 2.2.24 (a82c823)).
Basically, I want to create a new server installation on the new server so I don't bring any junk over (new user accounts, with the same uid/gid (still need to figure that one out), but

Checking sieve
A simple question: I?ve installed roundcube on macOS Sierra with Server 5.2 and created a set of sieve rules in my dovecot setup. How can I check their functioning (other than send test mails) e.g. is there some logging I can set / look at?

Is it possible to create and use some lookup table to replace (for instance) %u in mail_location?
Suppose my mail_location is:
mail_location = maildir:/private/var/mail/nl.rna.mail/%u
But I would like to use a simple lookup table to replace %u with another value, say '8DB4E345-9144-4F92-8C9F-9D47BB61CBF8? instead of ?username?. Is there a (simple) way to do this?

Is it possible to enable push notifications for iOS/macOS mail clients on a stock dovecot?
Now that Apple has abandoned mail server capabilities in macOS Server.app we have to move to an open source solution. I have done this using Macports and it works well (no thanks to Apple as it never published the in 2018 promised migration info for mail services).
The MacPorts Apple Push Notification variant based on a patch written a few years ago for dovecot supports APNS but it requires you

Up to date dovecot packages on Ubuntu 22.4LTS
I just found out that Ubuntu Linux 22.04 LTS has a dovecot apt package that is 2.3.16. Debian 11 (stable) is at dovecot 2.3.13 with apt. if I looked correctly. Dovecot itself is at 2.3.20.
That surprised me (I am new to the Linux distro and package management world) as Ubuntu 22.04 is a Long-Time Support version, and I was expecting packages to be updated as well (as many users will want updated
