Manao ahoana, Hello, Bonjour,
We currently run courier POP . We would like to switch to Dovecot.
I encounter problems when migrating the UIDL because we have big Maildirs and POP re-downlading the data is not possible for most of the users.
I tried the http://www.dovecot.org/tools/courier-dovecot-migrate.pl script but I still have the re-downloading event.
What are your stories and advices about courier-to-dovecot move?
Misaotra, Thanks, Merci.
Hi,
When moving my users from courier to dovecot I used the imapsync tool, which I then made a script for.
Some info on imapsync http://freshmeat.net/projects/imapsync/
This worked great, and as it preserves flags users did not have to re-download mail. You might want to tune some of the parameters like wheter to subscribe to folders or not.
No, I only had maybe 100 accounts to move, so I don't know how well it stacks up with moving large amounts between servers.
Cheers,
