disk space I need to gain a bit space before migrate to the new server
After you shut down the Dovecot daemons in preparation for copying the mailbox files to the new sever, simply delete all the index directories. That will free up a huge amount of space. The indexes will be automatically rebuilt when users log into the new server.
