[Dovecot] Maildir migration: Courier-imap 4.4.3 to Dovecot 1.2.
Hi all.
I am currently gathering information about migration of Maildir/ structures from Courier to Dovecot. What do you think about http://wiki.dovecot.org/Migration/Courier ? For each courier Maildir account I want to use http://www.dovecot.org/tools/courier-dovecot-migrate.pl to produce dovecot-uidlist file mv courierimapsubscribed subscriptions sed sed -i 's/INBOX\.//' subscriptions rm -r courierimaphieracl rm courierimapacl rm courierimapkeywords
I want also to leave default pop3_uidl_format (%08Xu%08Xv) in dovecot.conf Should I look into something else? Have I missed something?
Best regards, Rafal.

The migration script migrates subscriptions, so those shouldn't be necessary.
rm -r courierimaphieracl rm courierimapacl
You don't mind losing any ACLs?

That might cause your POP3 clients to redownload mails (or maybe not, I can't remember exactly how the script works).

The migration script takes the UIDLs from "courierpop3dsizelist" and writes them into "dovecot-uidlist". Thus Dovecot will use the same UIDL as Courier for the converted mails. %08Xu%08Xv will only be used for new mails.
