Hello, I'm running the latest version of dovecot on Linux with mbox
mailboxes. Everything works fine. So in my dovecot config I have
mail_location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u
I would like to now change the mail_location for one user in an attempt
to slowly migrate to Maildir format. I'm confused how to do this. I'm
running shadow passwords:
$: doveconf -n passdb
passdb {
driver = shadow
}
Testing any given user gives:
$: dovecot user sarah
field value
uid 1478
gid 116
home /home/sarah
mail mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/sarah
system_groups_user sarah
What would I have to do to make only sarah's mail_location ~/Maildir
now? My userdb is:
$: doveconf -n userdb
userdb {
driver = passwd
}
I tried following the wiki's but its confusing. Thanks for any help or
tips.
