> Good idea! But I have a problem. I tried to stop the replication (doveadm replicator remove <myuser>) for an user on both server. Verified with "doveadm replicator status <myuser>", it doesn't return, so I assume the replicator is off for this account. Then I try to send an email to this account to verify the replication is really stopped, but it activate again by itself? I receive the mail on both server and If I type "doveadm replicator status <myuser>", it seem like replication is back on.
Why does "doveadm replicator status <myuser>" not return?
I've tried the following commands on a replicated server (2.2.33.2), which all returned immediately:
[root at server ~]# doveadm replicator status user at domain.com
username priority fast sync full sync success sync failed
user at domain.com none 12:30:32 12:30:32 12:30:31 -
[root at server ~]# doveadm replicator remove user at domain.com
[root at server ~]# doveadm replicator status user at domain.com
username priority fast sync full sync success sync failed
(no additional output as replication is stopped)
[root at server ~]# doveadm replicator add user at domain.com
[root at server ~]# doveadm replicator status user at domain.com
username priority fast sync full sync success sync failed
user at domain.com none 00:00:02 00:00:02 00:00:01 -
(replication working again)
Maybe replication had not been stopped yet on your server.
Best regards
Gerald
