Hi
I am trying to set up a new mail server with dovecot. I got it all installed and set up successfully but am running into problems trying to migrate from my current email server. I tried the following command:
doveadm -Dv -o imapc_host=[current-imap-host] -o imapc_user=[current-user] -o imapc_password=[password] -o imapc_features=rfc822.size -o mail_fsync=never backup -R -u [user] imapc:
order matters. try:
-u <user> -R imapc:
I am guessing the new INBOX is not compatible with the Inbox on my current mail server so it is trying to delete it. If so is there a way I can change my configuration to allow it to be deleted?
start from clean setup for the first backup run. Ie delete local mails. or move them away.
