I am going to be wiping clean my system and doing a complete upgrade. I have dovecot installed. I want to back up the mail system, and then be able to restore it.
I thought that I could do this. doveadm -Dv backup -u u...@example.com maildir:~/DoveBU Then I was going to gunzip that directory and put it onto a USB Drive. Now, after updating the system, I thought that I could just unzip the file from the USB drive. My question is, what command do I run to return the files to the same place they were originally. Assuming the structure was: "/var/mail/vmail/", what would I do? Thanks -- Jerry
