Hi,
In the past, I've done a Dovecot Backup with a Rsync cmd... every day
Today I need to get back these mailboxes.. and doesn't work out
first of all, I tried to make a simple copy... Now way . Couldn't access the INBOX Do you think that it could work that way ? I don't need to synchronized every minute. once a day is OK for me.
I did use the instruction doveadm --import -u user1 maildir:/home/user1/mail/ "" ALL
It did start copying but apparently cannot got until the end... but noting visible onto Thunderbird...
I didn't do any synchro between 2 dovecot servers. I just need to make a copy some times to times and rsync seemed to be a good option. But now, How can I get back online ??? Thanks

rsyncing files back to place should be enough, no need to do import.
Can you provide more details, like log entries and doveconf -n?
