hi i am in the middle of migration from courier imap to dovecot
what i did is as such simply installed dovecot without stopping anything related to qmailtoaster edited the dovecot.conf to listen on port 1143 instead of the normal 143 configured a sample squirrelmail setup to use port 1143 instead of 143 and voila !!!! i have my dovecot working along with original qmail setup i can now change over domain by domain comfortably without any risk at all ... intially i tested out with a 3 gb mailbox with over 26000 emails and it works great opens in less than 15 seconds however i am stuck up in the migration process the migrate tool migrates the directories but does not migrate the folder subscriptions ie the folder subscribed under courierimapsubscribed is not transferred across to dovecot subscriptions so i plan to use a shell script to carefully do this domain by domain this is what i wish to do command no 1 find the file called courierimapsubscribed find /home/vpopmail/domains/domain.com -name courierimapsubscribed command no 2 make a copy of the courierimapsubscribed file to dovecot subscriptions file /bin/cp courierimapsubscribed subscriptions command no 3 open the file subscription and delete "INBOX." sed -i 's/INBOX\.//g' subscriptions i dont wish to remove any of the courier imap files for a few months till things are absolutely stable i need to combine all the above commands into one can somebody help please rajesh --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Qmailtoaster is sponsored by Vickers Consulting Group (www.vickersconsulting.com) Vickers Consulting Group offers Qmailtoaster support and installations.
