Trying to migrate a bunch of users with mbox format to maildir format. dsync creates some directories, but otherwise does nothing. (Complained about the lack of "/" as separator until I added that to config, now is silent when running dsync except with the -D flag)

I have tried dumping all the dovecot that came with my OS and built the latest sources, hoping I'd at least get a little better debug information out... but no luck.

Lots of hopefully useful output below.

What am I doing wrong?
