The tool can batch convert multiple MBOX files to Maildir format. It automatically creates Maildir folders like cur, new, and tmp. Some useful features: Bulk MBOX conversion support Maintains folder hierarchy Preserves attachments and metadata Simple graphical interface Works offline on Windows and Mac Free demo version available The process is very direct. Just add MBOX files, choose Maildir as the saving option, and start conversion. It is a good option for non-technical users who want to avoid complex Dovecot commands or Linux scripts _______________________________________________ dovecot mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
