Hello All,
I am new to Dovecot and the Dovecot mailing list.
I am trying to migrate an existing Exim + qpopper - mbox (pop3 only) installation over to Exim + Dovecot using mdir (pop3 and imap) And am running into problems with preserving the XUIDL headers.
I am running Dovecot 2.0.14
I have used the mb2md.pl script : http://dovecot.org/tools/mb2md.pl from this page http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Migration/MailFormat to migrate and import the mboxes And have the following pop3 uidl settings in my configuration .
pop3_reuse_xuidl = yes pop3_save_uidl = yes protocols = imap pop3 service imap-login { inet_listener imaps { port = 993 ssl = yes } } service pop3-login { inet_listener pop3 { port = 110 } inet_listener pop3s { port = 995 ssl = yes } protocol pop3 { pop3_reuse_xuidl = yes pop3_save_uidl = yes pop3_uidl_format = %08Xu%08Xv }
The problem specifically is that when I test the migration and import a mailbox, I am able to connect via IMAP using Thunderbird and Outlook 2007 and the Read / Unread status is preserved. However when I connect via POP3 the Read/Unread status is not preserved.
I am probably missing something simple, but have been unable to find anything that seems relevant on the Dovecot wiki or searching the mailing lists. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
