Hi Charles,

Yes, on the same box, on the same drive, on the same
partition/filesystem.
I have a box with dovecot/XMail (pop3/smtp) and two domains;
DomainA and DomainB
The company bosses decided to move about 20 mailboxes from
DomainA to DomainB.
As far as I can tell everything went well except for one
user (so far) that he tries to move fresh mail to (mv'd)
folders and it doesn't get there.
Also when he tries to delete messages, they don't get
deleted.
I did "cp -r" actually and kept the old mailboxes nearby
just in case.

Thanks,

s.
