A few RC releases ago we had a problem where a user's restored home directory contained a .imap folder either from a previous RC release or perhaps it was a different server. In any event, restoration of the user caused problems since Dovecot choked on the restored .imap index files. Removing those index files cleared the problem. I'm wondering if this is still an issue, and therefore whether we need to find and remove all .imap folders prior to archiving users, so that they are not restored with potentially old/bad index files. I would like to NOT have to worry about them, but rather have Dovecot be smart about when to simply re-create them if it detects something it does not like about them.
Well, as far as I know there are no problems. But how about you try with a few users first? If there are problems, let me know and I'll fix them.
Thanks! I will let you know if any such cases arise.
