I'm using this dedicated address because personal addresses aren't
masked enough at this mail public archive. Public archive administrator
should fix this against automated addresses collectors.

I took note of this:
# Repair
doveadm -v force-resync -u $User '*'
# Drop fts data
doveadm -v fts rescan -u $User
# Rebuild index
doveadm -v index -u $User '*'
But I'm not clear about $User it it's for my system "vmail" account that
run Dovecot services, or it refers to mail account.
In first case, how to specify mail account or maildir tree to act to?
Thank you.
