[Dovecot] Indexing transfered mails?
Going to be transfering a number of domains from a Courier setup to Dovecot.
Is there a way to get Dovecot to index the files before the users access their accounts?

I guess you already did this?

A script which logs in a everyone and selects all the mailboxes, I guess..
Although this isn't necessarily that useful. I mean creating the dovecot.index files should be really fast, the slow part is getting dovecot.index.cache filled with the information that clients need. And if your users are using different clients then you don't really know what should be placed in there. And in any case none of this should be all that much slower than what happens when opening the mailbox with Courier.

Got it..

True. So I guess trying to pre-build the index/cache would not be that usefull after all.
