see the posts replying to my question on using dsync for converting from sdbox to mdbox
however, I face a coredump (with 2.0.8) while converting large imap accounts (and stuck there...)

OK - I thought this was going to be easy. Maybe it is. I'm just not that good at reading directions.
Trying to use dsync. Getting this error:
Mail locations must use the same virtual mailbox hierarchy separator
(specify separator for the default namespace)
Currently using
maildir. The setup is as follows:
mail_uid = mail mail_gid =
mail_location = maildir:/vhome/%d/home/%n:INDEX=/imap-cache/%d-%n
I don't have any namespace setting. Not quite sure what a namespace is or why I need one.
This is what I'm trying to run:
dsync -u marc@perkel.com [1] backup sdbox:/email/%d/home/%n
What I'm hoping to do is do a mass conversion while running. Then shut it down - do a second quick
mail pass - and bring it up in sdbox format.
Thanks in
advance.
