similar to: doveadm migration to server with no root access

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 Sami Thanks for your response. Is it then possible to run doveadm without root permission? I've tried, but get the following errors (using the same kind of setup as my initial post). command: doveadm -D -v -c /root/tmp/dovecot_hetz.conf -o mail_fsync=never backup -u test at propertyzone.co.za pop3c: response: doveadm(test at propertyzone.co.za): Error: userdb lookup:

Hi, most likely no. You need to ask the admin of the server to do the migration.

This seems to be happening only when using the pop3c plugin. Any advice? root at imap01:/etc/dovecot# doveadm -D -o imapc_user=chat_logs at xxxxxx.com -o 'imapc_password=*******' -o pop3c_user=chat_logs at xxxxxx.com -o 'pop3c_password=*****' backup -u chat_logs at xxxxxx.com -R imapc: doveadm(root): Debug: Loading modules from directory: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules doveadm(root):

Hi This is a question related to plugin developement on Dovecot 2.1.4. I'm currently implementing a dovecot plugin that retrieves mails from a corporate server through an internal protocol. The plugin is very similar to the pop3c storage (lib-storage/index/pop3c). The plugin has to map original server UIDs to IMAP UIDs, using MAIL_CACHE_POP3_UIDL cache field the same way pop3c does. So,

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 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'

In https://wiki2.dovecot.org/Tools/Doveadm/Sync#section_arguments the destination list 5 possible options for the destination but in the page on migration https://wiki2.dovecot.org/Migration/Dsync it seems to use a sixth undocumented "imapc:" option for destination e.g. doveadm -o mail_fsync=never backup -R -u user at domain imapc: "imapc:" is also referenced on

Timo, There is a problem with the dsync POP3 migration plugin when syncing a large INBOX. What happens is dsync establishes a connection to the POP3 server at the beginning of the sync, but then it sits there idle until it's used to sync the UIDLs. On a very large inbox with many thousands of messages it will be idle for longer than a POP3 server's idle timeout setting. When the UIDL

v2.1's imap/pop3 processes are linked with OpenSSL by default, because of imapc/pop3c storages. I wonder if you notice any actual (system-global) memory usage reduction when compiling without those and you have thousands of imap processes? ./configure --with-storages=mdbox sdbox maildir mbox cydir I guess I could try it myself also but maybe someone else wanting to reduce memory usage is

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 =

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 I am new to the mailing List, and was hoping to get some assistance migrating from an Old Cucipop + Sendmail server (running on a old Redhat v 7) to a new Dovecot setup. My new installation is Dovecot + Postfix. All is setup and working, however I want to trasnsfer the contents of the mailboxes from my old server to this new Dovecot setup. Please let me know what information will be required

Hi, I've a broken IMAP server, which doesn't support pipelining and fails on dovecot's attempt to do this ([C] is dovecot's imapc, [S] is the IMAP server): [C] 24 LOGIN "user" "pass" [S] 23 OK [C] 25 SELECT "INBOX" [C] 23 UID FETCH 2 (INTERNALDATE) [S] 25 OK [S] 23 BAD No mailbox selected Sadly, fixing the server would be a hard task, turning off

I would also check where the "... is not portable!" messaage is generated. If it's done by the configure script, you can look at the test to give you a hint as to why this message was generated. For my setup, I did much the same as you but didn't have to set the SSL_CFLAGS, SSL_LIBS environment variables, nor did I set the --with-ssldir configure option (although your setup may

I see a new "POP3C" lib-storage client backend in dovecot 2.1, but I don't see anything in the 2.1 doc directory or in the wiki. Can this be used to synchronize dovecot with external pop servers? Doing away with my current fetchmail and lmtp solution for this would be quite interesting. Thanks for any pointers to configuring and using this, if so...

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
