dsync in Dovecot v2.0 tree is a new utility for syncing a mailbox in two locations.
I am very, very pleased to hear that you are working on this! Just at this moment, I am busy replacing a Dovecot IMAP based server with one with more powerful hardware, and until the tests are complete I want to operate both machines simultaneosly, so synchronisation is a big issue.
Does anyone want dsync to only sync changes from source to destination, instead of doing a full two-way sync?
If you want a decision "one-way XOR two-way", I'd definitely prefer the two-way sync option. If you can offer both sync types, all the better.
BTW, if you have not yet planned to include them, I suggest exception lists. The default would be to sync all messages in all folders for a given list of users, right? It would be nice to be able to configure dsync to achieve the following, too:
"Don't sync folders Trash, Junk, *.Newsletter, Boring.*" "Don't sync messages of a size greater than 2 MB"
What do you think?
