First i wanted to test the upgrade on a single user with a moderate amount of mail. I copied the mail folder, exported mailboxes.db to a text file and remove no existent mailboxes and then recreate mailboxes.db on the new server. I also created user/*/ folders and copied .seen file to the correct folder
Then i started master and tried it with a mail client. All mail is still marked as unread. Did I missed a step in the upgrade ?
