Yeah, I think dovecot was a custom compiled build
Version is 2.2.18
Config:
# 2.2.18: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # Pigeonhole version 0.4.8 # OS: Linux 2.6.32-754.14.2.el6.x86_64 x86_64 CentOS release 6.10 (Final) xfs auth_master_user_separator = * auth_mechanisms = plain login dict { acl = mysql:/etc/dovecot/dovecot-dict-sql.conf.ext } disable_plaintext_auth = no lda_mailbox_autosubscribe = yes log_path = /var/log/dovecot.log mail_home = mdbox:/var/homedirs/%2Mu/%2.2Mu/%u mail_location = mdbox:/var/mailboxes/%2Mu/%2.2Mu/%u mail_plugins = acl mail_shared_explicit_inbox = yes managesieve_notify_capability = mailto managesieve_sieve_capability = fileinto reject envelope encoded-character vacation subaddress comparator-i;ascii-numeric relational regex imap4flags copy include variables body enotify environment mailbox date index ihave duplicate vnd.dovecot.pipe vnd.dovecot.filter vnd.dovecot.execute namespace { list = children location = mdbox:/var/mailboxes/%%2Mu/%%2.2Mu/%%u prefix = shared/%%u/ separator = / subscriptions = yes type = shared } namespace inbox { inbox = yes location = mailbox Drafts { auto = subscribe special_use = \Drafts } mailbox INBOX { auto = subscribe } mailbox Junk { special_use = \Junk } mailbox Sent { auto = subscribe special_use = \Sent } mailbox "Sent Messages" { special_use = \Sent } mailbox Trash { auto = subscribe special_use = \Trash } prefix = subscriptions = yes } passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/mastership-sql.conf driver = sql master = yes pass = yes } passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext driver = sql } plugin { acl = vfile acl_defaults_from_inbox = yes acl_shared_dict = proxy::acl sieve_after = /etc/dovecot/sieve/99-file-qvera-ccda.sieve sieve_after2 = /etc/dovecot/sieve/98-notify-biz-address.sieve sieve_after3 = /etc/dovecot/sieve/97-mdn-processed.sieve sieve_execute_bin_dir = /etc/dovecot/sieve-execute sieve_execute_socket_dir = sieve-execute sieve_extensions = +vnd.dovecot.execute +vnd.dovecot.filter +vnd.dovecot.pipe sieve_filter_bin_dir = /etc/dovecot/sieve-filter sieve_filter_socket_dir = sieve-filter sieve_pipe_bin_dir = /etc/dovecot/sieve-pipe sieve_pipe_socket_dir = sieve-pipe sieve_plugins = sieve_extprograms } postmaster_address = postmaster@test2.domain.com sendmail_path = /sbin/sendmail service dict { unix_listener dict { user = dovecot } } service imap-postlogin { executable = script-login /etc/dovecot/imappostlogin user = $default_internal_user } service imap { executable = imap imap-postlogin } ssl = no userdb { args = uid=dovecot gid=dovecot home=/var/mailboxes/%%2Mu/%%2.2Mu/%%u driver = static } protocol lmtp { mail_plugins = acl sieve } protocol lda { mail_plugins = acl sieve } protocol imap { mail_plugins = acl imap_acl }
and --build-options:
Build options: ioloop=epoll notify=inotify ipv6 openssl io_block_size=8192 Mail storages: shared mdbox raw fail SQL drivers: mysql Passdb: checkpassword pam passwd passwd-file shadow sql Userdb: checkpassword nss passwd prefetch passwd-file sql
At that point my question is if I can run another dovecot build on the same box? I knew I can run the same instance but as is this a custom build I want to have something generic just to use for migration purposes.
Thanks, Adam

Well, judging by the error message it appears like dovecot hasn't been
compiled with support for maildir, which is strange because I don't see
any way to disable in the compile-time options.
Are you using the precompiled package from the distro or compiling
dovecot by yourself? Could you share the output of "dovecot
--build-options" and "dovecot --version"?
Thanks!
