I haven't used dovecot proxy or director. If I have a setup where all my 
users 
 are connecting to HOSTNAMEOLD, is it possible to have 1 imap user that 
is
 connecting to HOSTNAMEOLD directed/forwarded to HOSTNAMENEW?
Without changing my dns settings and preferably without creating any new 
servers.
I think I can route one users mail to HOSTNAMENEW with sendmail ldap 
routing.
So the only thing I need to be able to do is have the incoming imap 
requests on 
HOSTNAMEOLD been handled by HOSTNAMENEW.
