Re: moving mailboxes to another spool without stopping service

2010-04-08 Thread LALOT Dominique
Thanks for you answer. I tested through cyradm an was able to do the trick.
renm user.test user.test spoolX
moves user.test to another spool.

I sent a mail and consulted the mbox using imp/horde while doing the move
and saw nothing bad.

Good job!

Thanks

Dom

 it does.

 prevent the user from working on the moving data on the imap/pop side
 Is there a way to do that?


 Just RENAME the folder. We run a cronjob at night that does this. It greps
 in /var/lib/imap/proc to make sure there is no active process for the user
 to be moved, but AFAIK that's not absolutely necessary.

moving mailboxes to another spool without stopping service

2010-04-06 Thread LALOT Dominique
Hello,

We have reached rapidly the size of one spool and we want to migrate some
mailboxes to another spool. What is the best way to do that?
It would be nice that ltmp reports a temporary failure when moving in order
to keep the incoming mail in the smtp spool. And also a way to prevent the
user from working on the moving data on the imap/pop side
Is there a way to do that?

Thanks in advance

Dom
