you would want to backup your dovecot/postfix config files and mail certificates as well, and your database if you are using one for authentication, and user list, just in case.

    I run a small email server for me and the missus. Six dovecot users.

    Our host is migrating our server instance. They usually (99.9999%
    lol) go off without a hitch.

    As we don't have dovecot running elsewhere, I'm assuming doveadm
    is the wrong tool.

    If we want to make a one-off backup prior to the migration, is
    shutting down postfix and running
    tar czf mailstorage.tgz /path/to/mail okay?

    Thanks.
