similar to: migration from cyrus to dovecot

Hi dovecot people, We are in the process of preparing the migration from a cyrus 2.1 installation to dovecot. Dovecot will be installed on new hardware, so we have separated servers that can/will exist in parallel for a while. Our goal is to do the migration without interrupting the service for our users too much. Currently we tend to using dsync. So I am asking for best practice suggestions,

Hi all i'm migrating a cyrus imapd server to dovecot with dsync everyting seems working but sieve rules are not copied to dovecot server I searched for documentation but without any luck I use the configuration below with doveadm -v -o mail_fsync=never backup -R -u emailaddr imapc: Is sieve supported with dsync? How I can specify sieve server address and port? # 2.2.13.21 (606efd4a4f35):

Hello, Using cyrus2dovecot (https://github.com/a-schild/cyrus2dovecot) I have migrated some test mailboxes from Cyrus (2.4.17) to Dovecot (2.2.9). The problem I'm having is that the seen status is in cyrus.index files, which cyrus2dovecot doesn't understand. Does anyone use cyrus2dovecot for migrations? If so, how do you deal with seen status when it is stored in the .index files?

Hi, I finally migrated my IMAP server from cyrus to dovecot2. I have been using cyrus since many years and have not much experience with dovecot yet though. I've converted my imap server using cyrus2dovecot (several times until I thought it was correct) but there is one thing left which confuses me and I'm not sure what I can or need to do to change it. With Cyrus I used

Dear all, Despite all the progress we are making in our attempt to make the migration as smooth and transparent for our users there are still some important unsolved issues. One thing that I can't figure out is how to preserve a user's flags that s/he has for mail in a shared mailbox. So far we tried 'doveadm backup -R' as well as the cyrus2dovecot script from here [1]. Both

# dovecot --version 1.2.15 We're trying to migrate a server from Cyrus to Dovecot, and we're mostly there. On Cyrus, the folder layout in the MUA is: INBOX subfolder subfolder ... Sent Drafts Queue Trash Users cannot create sibling folders to the Inbox, only subfolders (and sub-subfolders, etc). We've replicated that with:

hi, we want to migrate from Cyrus 2.x to Dovecot 1.x (!). We use the virtual domain feature from Cyrus for a better disk partitioning: /var/imap/domain.a/user/foo .. /var/imap/domain.b/user/foo .. /var/imap/domain.c/user/foo .. In a exported skiplist DB, it shows like: ================= domain.a!user.foobar 0 int foobar at domain.a lrswipcda postmaster at domain.a domain.a!user.han 0 int han

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, we are migrating from Cyrus 2.3.7 to Dovecot 2.2.13. We have ~7000 maildirs with ~500GB. Our goal is to do the migration without users have notice and with the shortest service downtime. The users use IMAP (with shared folders and ACL), POP3 and sieve filters. As a first choice, we tried the Dovecot's dsync tool. First tests were great, but we are not able to change the Cyrus auth

Hi List, I am very close to migrating from Cyrus to Dovecot (to be more precise from Mac OS X Server 10.5.8 to 10.6.4). The latter is reporting the dovecotd version to be 1.1.20apple0.5. All I have read about dovecot is extremely positive so I am exited to make the switch. BACKUP: BUT I would like to be sure that I can make a sound backup strategy. For Cyrus i used topicdesk's mailbfr (a

Hi I have been using evolution/cyrus/exim for 10 years - until yesterday!
