Hi, you need to put mdbox parameter as last.

In the manual page this command is used for converting a mailbox

Yet I am getting this error and the mdbox folder is not created. 

dsync-local(test): (version not received) 
doveadm(test): Fatal: execvp(mdbox:~/mdbox) failed: No such file or

[@ dovecot]# doveconf | grep mail_locat

Users are not having shell access so something like su test -c '' 

will also not work.

What would be a work-around for this?
