I am trying to convert my maildir mail store to dbox using dsync (using "dsync -u username convert dbox:/mailstore2/dbox").  I get the following error message: dsync(root): Fatal: Mail locations must use the same virtual mailbox hierarchy separator (specify separator for the default namespace). My problem is that I do not know how to set separator in 10-mail.conf.  I would appreciate any pointers.  Here is the output from dovecot -n: # 2.0.3: /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.18-194.el5 x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.5 (Tikanga) ext3 auth_cache_size = 20480 auth_cache_ttl = 7200 s base_dir = /var/run/dovecot/ disable_plaintext_auth = no listen = * log_path = /var/log/dovecot.log mail_location = maildir:/mailstore/dovecot/maildir/%u maildir_very_dirty_syncs = yes passdb { args = /etc/passwd.dovecot driver = passwd-file } postmaster_address = postmaster@localhost protocols = imap service imap-login { inet_listener imap { port = 143 } service_count = 0 vsz_limit = 67108864 } ssl = no userdb { driver = passwd }
