Gotcha, so should I stay with the 1.2.xx branch and just use the mail_convert plugin? The only issue I have with that one is that I can't do it gradually and it pegs the server for all it has when a user is converted. Is there a better way to migrate from mbox to Maildir and also from old machine to new? That is my end goal, migrate to new machine and to Maildir.
I'm facing a similar issue. I was thinking of separate stages.
1 leave the mail where it is, make it available via NFS. 2 install a good new Dovecot (1.2.15) on the new machine (Test it etc.) 3 Change clients to access new Dovecot instead. Give it a few days. 4 Sometime later, do the mail conversion to Maildir, and you could decide what machine to have the mail on, too.
