Sorry about that. I'm trying to understand the syntax of the dsync
command. I have two servers with almost identical mail setups using
dovecot 2.13.
Here's the source side:
$ doveadm user [email protected]
userdb: [email protected]
home : /var/vmail/[email protected]
uid : 5000
gid : 5000
Here's the destination side:
root@abbott4 ~ # doveadm user [email protected]
userdb: [email protected]
home : /zdata/vmail/[email protected]
uid : 5000
gid : 5000
What is the correct syntax of the dsync command to backup email from
the first server to the second?
If I su to vmail then use
$ dsync -u [email protected] backup [email protected]
I get :
dsync-local([email protected]): Error: remote: doveadm(ken): Fatal:
User doesn't exist
dsync-local([email protected]): Error: read() from worker server
failed: EOF
I presume that's because it's doing a user lookup on the remote side
for ken instead of using my email address. How do I specify the username
for the remote side?
Any help would be appreciated.
