Yes, I do mean that address, I read that page four times and was still none the wiser. <rant-mode>And to be completely frank with you, if documentation relies on "implicit" guesswork and expects the user to "read between the lines" then in my books it is poor documentation ! </rant-mode> > > To be able to run the doveadm executable (or a wrapper script that > eventually > runs doveadm) on the remote side. Sure, but my question was does it need to be the dovecot user itself ? For example, on one server I have a root crontab that calls "/usr/bin/doveadm expunge" and that seems to work fine even though it is not running as the dovecot user but just root calling doveadm ? > > Depending on your use-case, you might be better off using one of the other > transport methods. Do you actually need per-user syncing? No, I don't need per-user syncing as it happens. I just want to use the sync feature to push backups to other server(s) for DR purposes. So if you have better suggestions that would fit that use-case, I'm open to suggestions ! Thanks !
