[Dovecot] Errors in log file

Hi,

I fully agree. The mailboxes are historical from an old Courier-IMAP server. Maybe more than 5 years ago. I switched to Dovecot in the past.

Probably I will write a little script and rearrange the directory structure.

The workaround is okay for now. Thanks a lot

Enjoy the holidays
