I'd just like to confirm that there is no risk to the actual mail data is ever something is badly configured when I start dovecot 2.1. I am managing this old server on my spare time for a friend, so I don't want to loose 2million+ emails and have to deal with those consequences:)
There are *always* risks associated with things like this... maybe the chance is low, but no guarantees...
Risks of some trouble, yes .. but you have to be highly creative if you want to accidentally lose any mails. I can't think of any way to do that without explicitly deleting files from filesystem or via IMAP/POP3 client.
