First, I archive the old messages in the INBOX on my list account

# doveadm -Dv move -u kremels@kreme.com Archive mailbox INBOX BEFORE 90d Debug: Loading modules from directory: /usr/local/lib/dovecot/doveadm Debug: Skipping module doveadm_acl_plugin, because dlopen() failed: /usr/local/lib/dovecot/doveadm/lib10_doveadm_acl_plugin.so: Undefined symbol "acl_user_module" (this is usually intentional, so just ignore this message) Debug: Skipping module doveadm_expire_plugin, because dlopen() failed: /usr/local/lib/dovecot/doveadm/lib10_doveadm_expire_plugin.so: Undefined symbol "expire_set_lookup" (this is usually intentional, so just ignore this message) Debug: Skipping module doveadm_quota_plugin, because dlopen() failed: /usr/local/lib/dovecot/doveadm/lib10_doveadm_quota_plugin.so: Undefined symbol "quota_user_module" (this is usually intentional, so just ignore this message) Debug: Module loaded: /usr/local/lib/dovecot/doveadm/lib10_doveadm_sieve_plugin.so Debug: Skipping module doveadm_fts_plugin, because dlopen() failed: /usr/local/lib/dovecot/doveadm/lib20_doveadm_fts_plugin.so: Undefined symbol "fts_filter_filter" (this is usually intentional, so just ignore this message) Debug: Skipping module doveadm_mail_crypt_plugin, because dlopen() failed: /usr/local/lib/dovecot/doveadm/libdoveadm_mail_crypt_plugin.so: Undefined symbol "mail_crypt_user_get_public_key" (this is usually intentional, so just ignore this message) doveadm(kremels@kreme.com)<64937><>: Debug: auth USER input: kremels@kreme.com uid=89 gid=89 mail_location=maildir:/usr/local/virtual/kremels@kreme.com/Maildir mail=maildir:/usr/local/virtual/kremels@kreme.com/Maildir home=/usr/local/virtual/kremels@kreme.com/ doveadm(kremels@kreme.com)<64937><>: Debug: Added userdb setting: mail=maildir:/usr/local/virtual/kremels@kreme.com/Maildir doveadm(kremels@kreme.com)<64937><>: Debug: Added userdb setting: mail_location=maildir:/usr/local/virtual/kremels@kreme.com/Maildir doveadm(kremels@kreme.com): Debug: Effective uid=89, gid=89, home=/usr/local/virtual/kremels@kreme.com/ doveadm(kremels@kreme.com): Debug: Namespace inbox: type=private, prefix=, sep=, inbox=yes, hidden=no, list=yes, subscriptions=yes location=maildir:/usr/local/virtual/kremels@kreme.com/Maildir doveadm(kremels@kreme.com): Debug: maildir++: root=/usr/local/virtual/kremels@kreme.com/Maildir, index=, indexpvt=, control=, inbox=/usr/local/virtual/kremels@kreme.com/Maildir, alt= doveadm(kremels@kreme.com): Debug: Mailbox Archive: Mailbox opened because: move doveadm(kremels@kreme.com): Debug: Mailbox INBOX: Mailbox opened because: move

OK. that went well, how about all users now?

doveadm: Error: Failed to iterate through some users

Ok, so I try the following:

# cd /usr/local/virtual && for i in *; do doveadm move -u $i Archive mailbox INBOX BEFORE 90d; done

And that works fine.

Everything is the same up until the Error but since nothing else is logged, where do I go from here?
