dbox alternate storage and samba
Hello everyone, i was just wondering if it's possible to use a samba share as an alternate storage for dbox format.
I tried creating a samba share, but when i try to move the email to the alternate storage using doveadm altmove, no errors are printed but no mails are moved.
Everything works if the alternate storage is simply another directory on the server hard drive.
am i mssing something?
thanks in advance.

mailstorage on samba? don't do that even if it would work in theory
well, indeed i agree with you, but i was asked to check if it could be done.. guess what.. orders from the above :(
i think NFS would do?

yes, better
however, depending on the load a block-level storage over iSCSI would be preferred because it *really* works like a local disk but still over the network
