- Timo Sirainen <dovecot@dovecot.org>:
dbox format needs at least two tools:
Expunging only marks the message having refcount=0. The actual disk space is freed only after calling a tool pointing to the user's dbox dir.
Ability to force index resync/rebuild in case it doesn't figure out itself that there's something wrong.
I'm starting to think about building a more generic mailutil tool, maybe something similar to what UW-IMAP has. So two questions:
- What should the tool be called? Probably not mailutil to avoid confusion. doveutil? dovemail? dovetool? mailtool?
Postfix has postconf for configuration issues, postqueue for queue management and postsuper to execute superuser commands.
doveconf? dovequeue? dovesuper? dovestore for storage (mbox, maildir, dbox, ...) handling?
- Is there any functionality you'd like it to do?
- Create mbox|maildir|dbox mailboxes
- Report mailbox size, number of messages, min.|avg.|max. message size
