Hi.
I have read the
https://doc.dovecot.org/2.3/admin_manual/migrating_mailboxes/#id7 and
there is
one part which is not 100% clear to me.
We have 2 Dovecot servers mail1 (2.2.36.4) and mail2 ( 2.3.21 ).
Now I have understood that I need to add this to mail1
service doveadm { inet_listener { port = 12354 } } doveadm_password = supersecret
and this on mail2
doveadm_password = supersecret
The question is for me now:
I think that this command doveadm backup -Ru username tcp:host:port
should be
executed on the mail2.
Is this assumption right?
Yes.
What I also found is that on that Page
https://doc.dovecot.org/2.3/admin_manual/doveadm_mailbox_commands/
the wiki is
linked for the manpages but the wiki link shows this.
The old wiki has been closed Our primary documentation is now at https://doc.dovecot.org, please update your links.
What's the right link for the manpages
https://doc.dovecot.org/latest/
Best regards
