similar to: dsync mail from a remote server

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'

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, 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

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? What I have done and results: ssh to server with mailboxes to copy and then su cp /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf /root/tmp/dovecot_new.conf append text below** to end of dovecot_new.conf try to copy mail 3 different ways (all fail see error messages) doveadm -D -v

Dear all i'm planning a transparent migration from a courier server that provides both IMAP and POP3 access to users to a remote dovecot server with both IMAP and POP3 access. I have to migrate about 2500 users for 250 GB of space. I'm using dovecot 2.2.5.4 on debian6 squeeze. To make a transparent migration i have to maintain old IMAP UIDs and POP3 UIDs, so i've read

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.

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

Maybe I'm misunderstanding - all of our clients use pop3 (thunderbird and eudora). Do pop3 and imap overlap somehow, or does the server use IMAP internally regardless of the client protocol settings?

I've just replaced our ancient (10-year old) mail server running Sendmail/UW-IMAP on Solaris with Postfix/Dovecot 2.1.10 running on Linux on new hardware. I opted to go with virtual users and I didn't want to create system accounts and I might end up hosting another department's mail as well. We have a mix of POP3 and IMAP users, roughly 90 total. The POP3 user mailboxes migrated

This seems to be happening only when using the pop3c plugin.

We're using doveadm -o imapc_user="$USER" -o imapc_password="$PASSWORD" -o imapc_host=$SERVER1 -o pop3c_user="$USER" -o pop3c_password="$PASSWORD" -o pop3c_host=$SERVER1 -D -v backup -R -u "$USER" imapc: to migrate Mails from Courier to Dovecot.

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 =
