Are indexes temporary files ? Should i migrate
Yes and no, some hold temporary information, but the most ones contain meta information.
anything in my existing setup !
Yes http://wiki.dovecot.org/IndexFiles http://wiki.dovecot.org/MailLocation/Maildir http://wiki.dovecot.org/Quota/FS
duplicate the directory hierarchie and copy/move the files there, control files are dovecot-uidlist and subscriptions, the index files are dovecot.index*
Nad finally should i create a directory for every user in /var/dovecot/ ?
Dovecot is creating the directory hierarchie per user itself, for new users. In this case /var/dovecot is a tmp-like directory with 1777 permissions.
If you pre-create the directory per user, the standard permissions apply. BTW: The direcotory is variable-expanded, http://wiki.dovecot.org/Variables, see the %u in the sample.
