Hi Alan,
Cheers for that, I managed to get it working looking at differnet
documents via our good friend google. Now I need to work out how to
migrate all my users from mbox to maildir. I believe there are
scripts / apps for doing this, I will consult google again. Thanks
for the pointers

Hi all, I'm using Debian (testing) for my office mail. I'm using
sendmail and Dovecot to deliver email to clients over IMAP using
mbox format. I want to move over and start using Maildir. I
know that I can use different MTA's to do the job, but I really
like sendmail, and I run additional sendmail servers across the
my internal and external networks. I'm probably being anal, but
I want to keep my MTA the same across the board. Does anyone
here use sendmail + dovecot + maildir? if so what's the best way
of going about this? GabeGabe,
basically, the local delivery agent (LDA) is responsible for which
format the mail is delivered in.a typical Sendmail LDA is procmail and with newer versions of
procmail you can deliver in Maildir format by putting a / at the
end of the delivery directory.check the man pages for procmail for more details.
