I am going to convert my 32-bit Debian system to a 64-bit Debian system today. But, after I move my maildir files over to the new hard drive the ctimes are going to get modified to current time and mess up my automatic purge scripts for the Deleted Items folders.
But it would get fixed by itself eventually..
Is it possible for me to either keep the existing ctimes
As far as I know there's no way to affect ctimes from userspace.
or is it possible for me to modify the ctimes to the date headers of the emails after I move the files?
IMAP requires that messages are immutable, so you shouldn't go changing them.
