Courier migrating issues: indexes, maildirsize, update query
Hi,
(my first post to the list)
I'm in the process of testing Dovecot to see whether it meets our needs
to replace our current Courier setup which serves well over 100.000
mailboxes (pop3 and imap: mysql with NFS)
So far dovecot seems pretty straight forward; however I ran into a
couple of things that I'm curious about.
1. What's the deal with

Courier->dovecot migration script
HI All,
We have the latest Dovecot 1.1.6 running and I need to migrate some
POP3 users over from Courier to Dovecot and would need to convert the
courierpop3dsizelist to maintain the UIDs.
I just need to confirm that the script
(http://www.dovecot.org/tools/courier-dovecot-migrate.pl) only works
for Dovecot v1.0 and not for v1.1?
As the dovecout-uidlist file that is created (by the script) is not

auto expunge trash
Hello,
Can this be done?
configurable number of days?
Like to move from courier, but this is the only thing we really need to
convince us to change, it is no good telling users to periodically
delete trash, they never listen :)

Hi,
I'm testing migration from courier to courier-0.57.0 to

Poor pop3 over nfs performance
Hi,
About a week ago I upgraded our reasonably heavily loaded mail servers
from a pretty recent courier version to dovecot-1.1rc10. IMAP
performance on dovecot is amazing, however POP3 performance is worse
than courier :-( I have uploaded some munin graphs taken today to
http://linweb.atlas.pipex.net/dovecot/; the dovecot server is handling
about 2000 pop logins/sec and 300 imap sessions (but

v1.1 status and benchmarks
v1.1 plans have changed a bit. I'll release v1.1.alpha1 soon and hope to
have a stable v1.1 in a month or two. The rest of the features that
didn't make it into v1.1 will go to v1.2. I'll write more about this
when v1.1 alpha is released.
I also did a bit of benchmarking. v1.1's performance improvements are
looking pretty great, it seems to be twice as fast as v1.0.

Triggering mailbox fetch
Greetings,
I would like to migrate mailboxes into a Dovecot system by using an IMAP
transfer from the old system - and I'd like this to take place automatically
at the time the user first logs into the new system.
I have a script which will perform an IMAP fetch and dump it into the local
maildir.
In courier-imap I could create a '.loginexec' file which is executed when

LIST % not returning correct data?
Hi list,
I have
namespace private {
prefix = INBOX.
separator = .
inbox = yes
}
in an installation migrated from courier. I am testing with Outlook
Mobile 5 (OM) which uses 'LIST "" %' to get the folder list. Now
courier used to return
* LIST (\HasChildren) "." "INBOX"
whereas dovecot returns
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX"

Courier keywords - anyone even tried?
I do realize from the Wiki that the formats are incompatible, and am
looking at the Courier spec
(http://www.courier-mta.org/imap/?README.imapkeywords.html) and the
Dovecot spec (http://wiki.dovecot.org/MailboxFormat/Maildir) trying to
see if there's any sane way I could try and write a shellscript.
The pain here is the Courier spec, I think I lost a few brain cells

Dovecot / FreeBSD / Nfs mailstore / Index=memory
Hello,
I have recently changed imap from Courier-imap to dovecot because of
serial problems with courier-imap, I have being forced to do it very
quickly... and without extensives tests.
I have 3 mails servers (freebsd based) behind a load balancer and a
nfs mailstore on a netapp.
On my first tests I have setup the index into some nfs shared mount,
but it seems that some imap clients are

maildirsize quota does not referred after migration from courier
Dear All,
We would like to migrate our existing courier to dovecot. After reading
document on website and doing some tests, here are some issues we met.
1. According the the wiki, it seems to imply that once migrating from
courier to dovecot, pop3 users may "lost/forget" their download "index/
history" which cause them to download again old mails that are kept on

IMAP maildir performance difference between dovecot-uidlist versions?
Hi,
Is there an IMAP performance difference using Maildir between using
version 3 and version 1 of the dovecot-uidlist (either dovecot 1.0.7 or
1.1.2)? It isn't entirely clear to me there is any difference as the
filename may contain the size/vsize information. The servers will
eventually be running 1.1.2 with the maildir_copy_preserve_filename
turned on.
I'm doing a batch migration

courier-dovecot-migrate.pl destroyed my indices... still recovering...
I tried to disable courier-pop3 today in favour of dovecot pop3.
Prior to that I ran:
find /home -maxdepth 1 -type d | xargs --replace /usr/local/scripts/courier-dovecot-migrate.pl --overwrite --recursive --convert {}
( /home is hashed two levels deep: /home/a/a/aanton/Maildir/ )
After that, I got lots of errors like:

Maildir with INBOX and other folders at same level
Hello-
I have set up Dovecot before and feel fairly comfortable with it but
am having some issues with a new setup and have not been able to find
a solution via Google or the list archives.
I use offlineiimap to sync an IMAP account with an email provider.
After the sync is complete, my ~/Maildir is set up with a folder

shared mailboxes question
I'm using a virtual mailbox setup. Lets say my users have mailboxes in
/home/vmail/domain/%u. What I'm trying to do is setup one namespace
that points to /home/vmail/domain and contains everyones mailboxes that
I can subscribe to. Is this possible?
I tried using a symlink to /home/vmail/domain but it doesn't work
because its looking for the dotFoldername. The only way I could

Migrate to 1.1 from 1.0.14
Hello.
I see dovecot 1.1 will be release very soon. I'm thinking about a
migration from my 1.0.14. The migration job will be hard/long?
I see in http://wiki.dovecot.org/Upgrading/1.1 that dovecot-uidlist
file are in a new format. It will be problem for Courier (pop/imap)
upgrades? (today, I often upgrade old mailboxes in Courier to my
Dovecot server).

per mailbox maildir format
Hi all,
Is it possible to set the maildir format at mailbox level? I'd like to
us Maildir++ for most of my clients, but want to emulate the other one
for one of my users. Can this be done with dovecot?
Thanks
