I have built a new server (FreeBSD-12) running dovecot-2.3.4. My old server (FreeBSD-9.3) is running dovecot-2.3.4 as well. The configurations are 1:1 identical. The are about 250 users on this server, all virtual. They are mostly POP3 users, but they do "leave a copy of message on the server" for set various number of days.
Now, to migrate the mail data, can I simply rsync the mail directories between the old and the new server? Would that create a pitfall??
What is the recommended method?
Consider re-posting your question in a NEW message, not a reply to another, unrelated thread. The type of people who are likely to know the answer are also likely to use threaded mail-readers, and will therefore not see your message.
