Thank you. This "works" in that it renames the files for me. However,

1. the filename timestamps are all similar (ie. time of import)
2. the emails showed up in new rather than cur
3. the emails are unseen.

The seen state can probably be fixed after the fact using doveadm flags, but there doesn't appear to be a way to do it with the doveadm save command.

I'd also like the filenames to reflect their original timestamps, not the time of import. Is that possible using doveadm?

or if the IceWarp has IMAP interface, you could try

doveadm -o imapc_host=hostname -o imapc_user=username -o imapc_password=password sync -1R targetuser imapc:

The server is down for good. All I have are files.

Thanks, Stef
