Hello, I've got a Postfix/Dovecot server setup. Currently Dovecot is version 2.3.6, and it's using Maildir storage. The mailbox is:
mail_home = /home/vmail/mailboxes/%d/%n mail_location = maildir:~/mail:LAYOUT=fs I'm wanting to convert from Maildir to sdbox. I looked at: https://wiki2.dovecot.org/MailboxFormat I was initially thinking mdbox but that's multiple messages per file, which I do not believe is what I want. Am I correct that in the sdbox format if a single message file is corrupted only that message is corrupt and not the rest of the messages as would be the case in a mdbox setup? On the page: https://wiki2.dovecot.org/Migration/MailFormat " maildir -> sdbox migration. Set mail_location=sdbox:~/sdbox and run dsync -u username mirror maildir:~/Maildir " If I set mail_location=sdbox:~/sdbox will that put the user mailboxes in mail_home/sdbox? So it would be: /home/vmail/mailboxes/example.com/username/sdbox I am needing to do this migration, but am paranoid about loosing mail or corrupting mailboxes. All of my users are virtual users and they are stored in a mysql database. Thanks. Dave.
