Okay, apparently I’m just a complete idiot. Why doesn’t this work? doveadm -Dv backup -u user Maildir:/mnt/maelstrombackups/vmailbackup With user being the actual user name. No backup is created, it just shows me the usage text. Jeff > On Feb 20, 2019, at 10:11 PM, SH Development >

to copy live mail, thus the need for doveadm sync/backup. Based on what I’ve read about doveadm backup, this is what I need, I am just having a hard time formulating the syntax for the command. Jeff > On Feb 20, 2019, at 10:45 PM, @lbutlr via dovecot wrote: > > On Feb 20, 2019, at

Assistance with doveadm backup...

I am having trouble locating examples of how to use doveadm backup. All the examples I see are for sync. I simply want to create a backup to a network volume of the email server's vmail folders. The goal here is to have a reasonably current backup should the main drive on the email server go

I have recently noticed that my dovecot-deliver.log is huge and wanted to start rotating it. So a couple of questions: 1. Can the dovecot-deliver.log be combined with the maillog, that gets rotated weekly? If it can be done, is it advisable? Since the inception of this particular server, the

Can someone help me understand the overall picture of SSL certificates in this scenario? I have a working dovecot/postfix/mysql server. It has a certificate. I now want to create a second, essentially duplicate configured server for use with replication. What is the relationship between the

Clamping down on mailbox sizes...

I don’t want to do this for all users….but… I have a few users who insist that they use their mailboxes regularly and don’t want it cancelled. Fine. But they won’t clean them out either. What steps would you all recommend for setting quotas on some users but not others? Specifically
