What's the best utility to use to convert mail folders from a cyrus 2.2.13-10, on a debian 4.0 Etch system, to folders that can be used by dovecot? The http://wiki.dovecot.org/Migration/Cyrus page isn't too clear on what's the difference. cyrus2courier says "It should be able to preserve message UIDs, flags and 26 first keywords." cyrus2maildir.py says "preserves

Hi All, I've built the dovecot-antispam-plugin from hg.dovecot.org and installed it. I've turned on debugging with "mail_debug = yes" in dovecot.conf and restarted dovecot. However, the antispam plugin module gets loaded by dovecot, but then nothing, i.e. when moving mail from Inbox to Spam and vice versa, I see nothing. How do I get debug messages from the

Hello, So we've chosen to use dovecot as our imap mail server and replace our old cyrus server ! BUT : I would like to do a conversion of my imap accounts (and keep all theirs characteristics) from cyrus-imapd-2.2.12 in cyrus format to dovecot 1.1.3 in courrier format. I've tried those 3 tools : cyrus2courrier.1.5.ts cyrus2courier-1.3z4 imapsync (works well but very slow and should not

Hi All, does anyone know of a way to automatically create user folder(s)? Like creating a Spam folder on login if not already there. I've googled a bit but couldn't find anything relevant. Any advice appreciated R /Lars

Hi All, I'm new to dovecot (coming from cyrus) and have a bit of a problem setting up postfix + dspam + dovecot. 1. postfix + dovecot: works like a charm. Using "mailbox_command = /usr/lib/dovecot/deliver" in postfix main.cf 2. adding dspam to the equation: unable to deliver: net_connect(/usr/var/run/dovecot/auth-master) failed: No such file or directory Using

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Anyone out there know of a tool that can convert a Cyrus MailDir format to Dovecot mbox? I have a user that I need to move over from a mail server running cyrus using MailDir format. At first I told him to setup second account with Thunderbird to our mail server and then use Thunderbird to move the messages over. But he has over 100K messages so

Hi List, I am trying to migrate my dovecot 0.9 (mbox-Storage) to 1.0rc2 with maildir-storage using imapsync. I cannot manage to copy the emails from one server to the other, however the dry-run from imapsync works nicely. Is it possible to make dovecot more verbose to see what is happening (or not happening)? Thank you very much. Best Stephan

hello list, I am attempting to sync two imap servers using the imapsync perl script. It seems handy and easy. Here's what happens when I try to do this: # # Postfix master process configuration file. For details on the format # of the file, see the master(5) manual page (command: "man 5 master"). # -o smtpd_sasl_auth_enable=yes # -o

Hi, I'm using Imapsync to sync messages from an Exchange 2003 server to a Dovecot 1.1.11 server. The problem is that users' mailboxes are huge, several gigabytes with tens of thousands of messages. First Imapsync connects to Exchange and then to Dovecot, and then starts to get Inbox info from Exchange. By the time it gets this info, the connection to Dovecot has timed out. I realize the

In my development environment I sometimes get: dovecot: IMAP(stava): Timeout leak: 0x4425d0 Does anyone know what it means or how I can use this information? Cheers /Lars

Did anyone set up the enviroment in dovecot with post login scripting in which imapsync does sync between two mailservers on users login (on login sync mail from old to new mailserver) is there a alternative or different approach? something like #!/bin/bash /usr/bin/imapsync --syncinternaldates --nosyncacls --authmech1 PLAIN --host1 old.server.com --user1 $USER*master --password1 master

Hi people, I recently tried to migrate from Exchange using imapsync. It didn't work because it complained that dovecot had no namespace capablity. After looking through Dovecot's config files I found that namespaces could be defined, but if you did not a 'private' default one was created. In the 2.x wiki documentation (http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Migration) it says nothing about

Hello, I was previously running a cyrus server which I realized later on is overkill for what my needs so I would like to switch to dovecot. Unfortunately the cyrus2courier utility to migrate the mails gives me the error Header version 6 not supported I was using cyrus 2.2.3. Does anybody have any advice on how I could migrate all the mails ? Thank you. Arnaud.

Hi all, I want to migrate our customers mailserver (400 mail accounts), from cyrus-2.0.16 to Dovecot. Anyone an idea how I can preserve the read/unread status and what can I do with the UIDL? (cyrus used a different algorithm for UIDL). Thanks in advance. Best regards, Jens Gutzeit

Hi All, anyone been able to use the dovecot-antispam-plugin from http://hg.dovecot.org with dovecot-2.0.x? Any input appreciated R /Lars Stavholm

Hi all, I'm at the stage of planning our new mail system and am evaluating dovecot for it. For large mailstore setups, it makes sense to split maildirs across many directories. I see that setting default_mail_env to something like maildir:/var/imap/domain/%1d/%d/%1u/user/%u/ would create almost identical on-disk layout as multidomain cyrus setup. Now, as dovecot does not have its own

Thank you for the reply. I did find imapsync whilst perusing Google. I will give it a shot, it sounds more realistic/reliable. I have a hoard of emails going back to 1999, so I want as few errors as possible :) On 11/7/15 3:31 PM, Philon wrote: > Hi there, > > I was in the same position, but for mutliple accounts. Still you might want to look at imapsync

Hello, Because it did not work ? In a similar situation, we where forced to use isync/mbsync in imap to imap mode because dsync did not work. It was reported here more than a year ago (May 2014). Time to time, I see the same report from other trying to use dsync to do a migration to dovecot. Dsync is a very appealing and elegant solution to this usage, but it does not always work in real

Hi, No, I tried fetching over imapc too exactly as you suggested. In my case it was not from cyrus, but from CriticalPath. isync was finally able to do the job, preserving flags and doing UIDs mapping. The most boring part was generating proper config file for thousands of accounts. A working imapc/dsync would have been better. Emmanuel. Le 26/11/2015 15:24, Sami Ketola a ?crit : > Hi,

I have been attempting to use the cyrus2dovecot script, to no avail. I have many years of content that I want to convert from Cyrus to Dovecot; with the above not working, what are other options out there? Another idea I had is simply set up another IMAP server (using Dovecot) and drag-and-drop and just wait, which I may end up doing. In the above, I copied over my entire /var/imap and
