Merging mailboxes with doveadm

Hello,

I am trying to merge(=copy) all mails of all user mailboxes into one 
mailbox for one-time archival purposes.

The command I am using is

  sudo doveadm -v copy -A archive at somedomain.net ALL


The error I get for every mailbox is:

doveadm(someuser1 at somedomain.net): Error: Can't open mailbox 
'a at somedomain.net': Mailbox doesn't exist: archive at somedomain.net

doveadm(someuser2 at somedomain.net): Error: Can't open mailbox 
'a at somedomain.net': Mailbox doesn't exist: archive at somedomain.net

[etc...]

I don't exactly understand why. I think I am don't understand the 
'destination' parameter correctly, so somebody can enlighten me, please?

Thank you


Carsten
