[Dovecot] Migrating from mbox to maildir, which converter is compatible with dovecot
Hi, I'm testing/debuging the migration from mbox to maildir in a mailserver running Dovecot 1.0alpha5.
I migrated all 472715 emails(in a test server) and later noted that dovecot could not get the same flags/status of the emails as in the mbox. I was using perfect_maildir.pl and I think its not dovecot fault. Seems to me that perfect_maildir.pl convert the emails in a way that dovecot could not understand completelly.
So, my cuestion is, which mbox to maildir converter can I use that is compatible with dovecot 1.0alpha5 ?
Thanks Oliver

I am not sure how good it is but there is also mb2md utility.
