My working 2.0.18 syntax threw the following error:

You left out "mirror" from that command, but after adding it the latest hg version works.
I did use 'mirror', I just forgot to paste it.

dsync-local(test): Error: read() from worker server failed: EOFIf I do omit the remote '-f' the old syntax is being accepted. Thanks for fixing that.
Now I switched to the recommended new syntax as stated in http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Upgrading/2.1:
vmail> doveadm sync -v -f -u test ssh vmail@remote-host.tld doveadm sync -v -f -u test doveadm: illegal option -- v doveadm sync [-u <user>|-A] [-S <socket_path>] [-fR] [-m <mailbox>] <dest>
The -v parameter is in wrong place now, needs to be "doveadm -v sync".
Ah, yes. That was my mistake, sorry.
After some trial by error I finally found a working syntax:
vmail> doveadm sync -u test -f ssh vmail@remote-host.tld doveadm dsync-server -u test
Oh, hmm. I hadn't thought about this problem, it shouldn't have been necessary to give the dsync-server parameter. But I guess there's not a whole lot of other possibilities to do this. Hmm.
BTW. I think you can do this simply:
doveadm sync -f -u test test@remote-host.tld
vmail> doveadm sync -f -u test ssh vmail@remote-host.tld
dsync-local(test): Error: remote: dsync-server: Command not found.
dsync-local(test): Error: read() from worker server failed: EOFUsers are virtual ones at both mail servers, and vmail is the only system user to run ssh. Thus I can't test user suggestion. But it's ok to add a 'doveadm dsync-server -u test'.
Now, I will stick to 2.1.x because syncing is done without loss of mails (after 10 days of testing). The only inconvenience remaining is reappearing of deleted and "undeletable" mail. But it seems that I'm the only one reporting that. How could I help to debug this issue?
