I was under the impression that you could migrate individual mailboxes and set up the information via the dovecot.passwd file, i.e.
health:$1$MCtvt/Tz$FmKqU/cbWlBhKnhc5W.Ko.:1152:1152:/home/health:userdb_mail=maildir:~/Maildir
Is this not valid?
That looks ok, but:
passdb: driver: passwd-file args: /home/dovecot.passwd passdb: driver: pam userdb: driver: passwd
You're using passwd-file only as passdb. That means it uses only the username and password field of the file. You'll need to use it as a userdb also.
But can the users read their mail anyway? You said that they can't get new mails. Are you using Dovecot's deliver as MDA?
ok, being that I've never done this before, how do I fix this?
The users cannot find the Email in the Maildir because the setting is not read. Clues?
