Hello Larry, thank you for the hint. It seems to be working very well.
Question to Michael: Could this be in your eyes a good general new setting for all _new_ installations? Of course not for existing servers because after the change mails in the mbox format are no longer accessible on the server, even they are still there.

Dirk, Believe (still testing) I have this worked out with the following chanage to 10-mail.conf (in /etc/dovecot/conf.d): Original: mail_location = mbox:~/mail/:INBOX=mbox Commented this out and changed to: New: mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir:LAYOUT=fs:DIRNAME=MailDiR The DIRNAME is what got it all working. It is just a "name" that should not ever get used as an actual folder name by the customers. I am using the imapsync and have several accounts transferred and appears to be going well. -- Larry Smith lesm...@ecsis.net On Wed December 13 2017 02:03, Dirk Estenfeld wrote: > Hello, > > we have to migrate several IMAP accounts from an different server. > I want to use the IMAP Sync function in Blueonyx which is general a cool > function.
