Hi,
I'm currently restructuring my mail archives and migrated from a decade
and a half old procmail supported solution to sieve.
While doing so I often found that I'd like to filter a bunch of messages
(with "bunch" in the area of 1-10K) with my shiny new sieve script. I
found in the wiki a way to do that:
http://wiki.dovecot.org/HowTo/RefilterMail
And it works well, it picks the mails via IMAP and resubmits them to
dovecot-lda. But unfortunately the IMAP flags including \Sent, \Flagged
etc are lost in the process.
I started checking for other solutions beside getmail that might extract
the imap flags as well, but I wouldn't know how to pass them to
dovecot-lda.
Would it make sense to suggest to have dovecot offer this kind of
reprocessing itself? That way nothing would get lost in any transition.
