<font face="Noto Sans">Hello,<br>
<br>
i am using dovecot 2.3.4.1<br>
<br>
I am tyring to make a script using the doveadm move command to
move old emails into a subfolder of the users INBOX ; say all
mails from 2016 into INBOX/2016.<br>
Selecting and moving is not the issue; everything works just i am
amazed that the (test) mail client Thunderbird downloads all mails
in INBOX/2016 after the move.<br>
<br>
When i make an IMAP move of all 2016-mails in Thunderbird; mails
are moved between the mailboxes without any mails being
(re-)downloaded.<br>
So what am i missing here?<br>
<br>
Thank for the tip :)<br>
Kind regards,<br>
Tom<br>
<br>
the doveadm move debug output is :<br>
