Hi all,
I have found lots of scripts to convert mbox to maildir, and they all seem to work. However, when I transfer the newly generateed maildirs to my test machine, I only ever see the Inbox. If I create folders inside my Inbox, they are visible, but I don't know where their Maildirs are. Here is how I told my script to convert them: /var/spool/mail/<user> -> /home/<user>/Maildir(cur,tmp,new) /home/<user>/mbox1 -> /home/<user>/Maildir/mbox1(cur,tmp,new) /home/<user>/mbox2 -> /home/<user>/Maildir/mbox2(cur,tmp,new)
Am I missing something here? Because it just doesn't seem to work.
Thanks for your help, Misty
Courier uses a . as the folder prefix, which coincidentally (or otherwise) hides files. Do a ls -a and you'll see the folders you've created. I would suggest giving the old mboxes a . at the beginning, so you'd have /home/<user>/Maildir/.mbox1/(cur,tmp,new)
