Hi,

How do i convert from Maildir to dbox using the convert plugin?

My users reside in /home/user/Maildir.

In the dovecot.conf file i've set up

convert_mail = dbox:%h

mail_location = dbox:~/dbox .. convert_mail = maildir:~/Maildir

Note that it'll rename files from maildir to dbox. Also although I've done a lot of stress testing with dbox already, I don't know if it's been in any real use yet. Backups would be a good idea.

Oh, and I hope you're using 1.1.betas, don't even try to use v1.0's dbox code.
