One-off backup

[Ian Evans]

I run a small email server for me and the missus. Six dovecot users.

Our host is migrating our server instance. They usually (99.9999% lol) go
off without a hitch.

As we don't have dovecot running elsewhere, I'm assuming doveadm is the
wrong tool.

If we want to make a one-off backup prior to the migration, is shutting
down postfix and running
tar czf mailstorage.tgz /path/to/mail okay?

Thanks.
