I have found this interesting post in the mailing list: https://dovecot.org/pipermail/dovecot/2021-February/121329.html Same problem here with Dovecot 2.3.13, "doveadm altmove -r" is not moving anything from alternate to default storage. I fixed this by reverting this commit:

Why can't you just pipe the output of "doveadm altmove" command through an external command to do the XZ/LZMA compression if dovecot no longer supports it internally?

And that's set in stone.

So what are the issues with xz? Security? Crashes or viruses on expanding invalid archives?
