For me this is working, too:
doveadm -o mail_location=maildir:/home/user2/Maildir mailbox status
-u user1 all INBOXEureka!! The magic incantation snippet I was seeking :) I had tried, variously, placing this simple string:
"mail_location=mdbox:/home/RESTORE/homeb/userName/mail:INDEX=/home/RESTORE/var/dovecot/index/userName"
So, where exactly did I fail to find -o documented?
http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Tools/Doveadm
- -o is a global option.
Dovecot v2.2.15: man doveadm /-o<ENTER> :-)
man doveadm|egrep -i '\-o' -o setting=value ple settings, the -o option may be specified multiple times.
However, I always wonder about the quoting [different shells behave differently] and would use:
man doveadm|egrep -i -- -o
The reason I did not see -o is because that option is NOT documented in the man pages for my dovecot installation, for whatever reason! Either of our egreps would have found it if only it had been there :(
[root]# man doveadm|egrep -i '\-v' -v Enables verbosity, including progress counter. [root]# man doveadm|egrep -i '\-o' [root]# man doveadm|egrep -i -- -o [root]# man doveadm|egrep -i -- -v -v Enables verbosity, including progress counter. [root]#
FWIW this is CentOS 7 with dovecot installed from an RPM:
