Well, I can't say that it is because I have never tried using mixcvt. I built imap-uw from ports on a FreeBSD 6.2 box and do not have this utility. I'll try to find it and give it a shot. If this works I will be one happy admin. Thanks.
If you could point me in the direction of mixcvt that would be great...thanks. -Tom > If you use mixcvt (instead of mailutil) the UID regime of the source > mailbox should be preserved intact in the destination. > > Are you saying that this isn't happening for you? > > On Sun, 24 Feb 2008, Tom Grove wrote: >> Currently I am running IMAP-UW using mbox mailboxes.
