Changing Dovecot's format from Maildir to mdbox
Hello,
I am trying to change Dovecot's email format from Maildir to mdbox. I have changed Maildir to mdbox in Mail_location from: maildir:/var/vmail/%d/%n to: mdbox:/var/vmail/%d/%n. Nothing seems to happen after I restart Dovecot. The users are virtual users and not local users. Is there something I am missing?
Thanks
Kris

You also need to migrate the data from maildir. If you have backups, try doveadm sync -A maildir:
