Re: Flags in public folders disappear when more than 25 flags are used

Now I am a little closer to the problem. I discovered that the dovecot-keywords file is out of sync with what doveadm reports. Is that a problem?

To continue my monologue, this does not seem to be a problem. The numbering in the dovecot-keywords is different from the ones reported by doveadm in almost all of my folders.

Now that I am using 2.2.13, I have observed this:

• The flags that are present in the dovecot-keywords are synced between all clients.
• The flags that are not in the dovecot-keywords files are not synced between clients, they are in fact per-user keywords (I use per-user seen flags for the public folders). When I set the keywords, I see changes in the dovecot.index.* files located at "/home/vmail/adwin.de/%n/public", while that information should be stored at "/home/vmail/public".

Maybe this happens because I am using 2.2.* with INDEX instead of INDEXPVT, so now my question is, how do I upgrade from INDEX to INDEXPVT without losing information? Will dovecot convert the old files automatically? I did not find anything about that at http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Upgrading/2.2
