dear list, i try to backup our dovecot server via
doveadm -Dv backup -A -n inbox -n shared remote:vmail@192.168.122.51
So far, it's working fine except for one thing: the "seen"flags for the shared mailboxes don't get copied to the backup-server. I tried a few things (like calling the doveadm command with different options for the namespaces or defining the mailboxes -m; i also changed the path for INDEXPVT), but none of these worked and i don't know how to tell doveadm to sync these flags. Maybe the config for the namespaces is wrong?
Or is it just not possible (yet)?
Try adding -f parameter? It's probably skipping those folders because it thinks they're already synced. You anyway need to sync each shared folder as each user, but I think that command would be doing it.
