I migrated from UW IMAP/Qpopper to Dovecot using:

indexes on /var/indexes is faster: local, not NFS mouted

default_mail_env = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u:INDEX=/var/indexes/%u

Qpopper

pop3_reuse_xuidl = yes

The new mail is sent to in /var/mail/%u in mbox format

How can I migrate some users to maildir and have them receive their emails either in POP3 or IMAP. (lots of big files to convert)

How does new email get spooled in the right INBOX (POP3/IMAP) ?

Thanks.
