T h a t ' s   p r e t t y   c o o l !

I knew if I waited long enough something like that upgrader would
appear. Thanks Aki!

It converted to 1077 lines of 2.4.x config text, and I'm sure over 90%
of that is just default stuff. The main thing is, assuming the
converter's syntax is right, I can use it as a syntax guide.

When I get 2.4.2 up on my VM, I can do dovecot -n to see the
non-default lines, and make a much shorter config based on that.

I have two specific questions from the converted config:

1. "dovecot_storage_version = 2.4.0" : What does that do, and why is it
   needed?

2. "maildir_copy_with_hardlinks = yes" : What does that do and what
   happens if I set it to "no", and what is its default?

Thanks,
