Ok - I gave up on trying to get CIFS to work - there's obviously stuff going on I don't understand. So - instead of trying to get a virtual server to work, I next tried a chroot. That worked...but imapsync error'ed out trying to handle one of my large mailboxes.
I was trying to setup a "new" server, migrate all my mail over, verify everything worked - maybe even leave the virtual server operating for a while. But the fates are consipiring against me. So - time to make the leap. I want to upgrade a live version 1.0 server to version 1.1 (from Ubuntu repositories, using version 1.0.10 to 1.1.4).
What special steps do I need to take to have this go smoothly? At least I have some semi-tested configs for 1.1 that I can use. Do I just stop the server, upgrade, upgrade the configs, start - and pray? Or is there another step?
Also, my legacy installation was using maildir - I'd like to try shifting to dbox. Do I just need to change the prefix on mail_location and the conversion will magically happen?
