Hi Adam
Can you try: "doveadm sync -u <user> maildir:~/Maildir"
My mailboxes are in sdbox (I have "mail_location =
sdbox:~/sdbox:ALT=/mnt/archive/%u/sdbox") and after running that command
I managed to successfully migrate the user mailbox to maildir. Also that
is the command I used to migrate all my user's maildirs to sdbox some
time ago.
Regards
