I'm thinking about patching so the transition can be as transparent as possible: Also if anything might go wrong in production I want to be able to switch back to the 'old' Courier IMAP (without renaming files etc.)
Any thoughts on this
I am going through the same process at the moment and I think the best solution is to start afresh
I have setup a new Dovecot server with the proxy stuff enabled. I can then migrate accounts one at a time to the new machine and other users pointing at the new machine simply get proxied back to the old machine.
Can't easily roll users back to the old machine, but it does mean that we can do limited testing and not need to do a big bang approach
