Is it right ?
Converting ☜ http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Tools/Dsync#example_converting
Assuming that the *mail_location* setting in * /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-mail.conf* is set to: *mail_location = mdbox:~/mdbox*, a logged in system user may convert her/his mails from its Maildir in her/his home directory to the mdbox mailbox format. The user has to execute the command:
*dsync mirror maildir:~/Maildir*
The comand above does not convert mdbox to maildir ?
location1 is mdbox:~/mdbox and location2 is maildir:~/Maildir Right ? or is backwards ? It takes location2 and convert to location1 ?
The first guys explain location1 to location2
Wich one is right ? Sorry i do not have any dovecot configured right now!
Any way, in step 5 how would the comando know wich way it should convert cause i change the conf.

-f -u user@dom.com. Although -f isn't necessary at all.
and after i run this comand i have to change the config on my sql to the user have the new maildir settings right ?
Yes.
But now, i might have problems with emails sent when i am converting. After change the setting on mysql, how can i convert the msg that arrived at same time that convertion? Thoses emals will be in mbox format and the dsyn will see only maildir settings. Maybe using the parameter "-m" after i change the setting on mysql ?
Just run dsync mirror again. See the "Converting" example in http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Tools/Dsync
