BTW. Nowadays Dovecot includes its own conversion tool also, which might work better than mb2md. Usage is something like:
src/plugin/convert-tool user /home/user mbox:/home/user/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u maildir:/home/user/Maildir
Hi,
haven't found convert-tool on my Debian box (I used apt-get to install everything...), so I tried mb2md for a test account as described in the WIKI.
Output of mb2md and also resulting Maildir directory and files looked to me like everything worked, but now Thunderbird doesn't show the mailboxes that were converted from mbox to maildir.
Right now, I haven't set default_mail_env in dovecot.conf as everything was detected automatically.
Of course, I could set default_mail_env but I don't want to convert all users to maildir before having seen it works for one specific testing account.
Can I set default_mail_env on a per use base? Will I have to use namespaces?
TIA Gerhard
