Some more background information:

- Running 2.3.13 (89f716dc2)

- The rsync is run from the user's current mapped backend (from `doveadm director status <user>`), in hopes to reduce NFS-related issues

- Kicking is done through one of the directors, to ensure all of the user's connections are kicked.

Best regards,
