Hello,
I'm new to dovecot. I managed to set up a system running
dovecot/mysql/postfix/postfixadmin with a virtual maildir setup on
Ubuntu 12.04 I can add and remove users, send and receive mail, create
folders, move mail between them etc so all ok.
Now trying to manually import some mbox files from the old server into
dovecot. Copied a mbox file to the new system, converted it to Maildir
with mb2md resulting in a directory containing the new, cur en tmp.
Looks ok, old email messages are all there.
When importing this folder using doveadm import it fails with the message:
Error: Couldn't create mailbox
maildir:/home/vmail/bezoekerscentrumsonsbeek.nl/techniek/.INBOX:
Invalid mailbox name
What am I doing wrong?
Martin
