Using imapsync we are attempting to move our mail store from an Cyrus-IMAPd-2.3.16 running under CentOS-6.9 to a Cyrus-IMAPD-3.0.4 running under FreeBSD-11.1p6. In all instances we are using software as packaged by the respective distribution.
On our existing system our user mailboxes are referenced using user.mailbox. On the new system we can create mailboxes with the same nomenclature (user.mailbox). However, when we try to transfer an existing mailbox to the new server via imapsync it does not use the existing mailbox given by user.mailbox. Instead, it seems to create on the target host a new mailbox called user/mailbox distinct from user.mailbox. My question is: What configuration issue is causing this discrepancy between expected (user.mailbox --> user.mailbox) and observed behaviour (user.mailbox --> user/mailbox)? The the non-default settings in imapd.conf on the target system are: syslog_prefix: CYRUS syslog_facility: MAIL admins: cyrus admin configdirectory: /var/imap partition-default: /var/spool/imap sieveusehomedir: false sievedir: /var/imap/sieve allowplaintext: true anyoneuseracl: true autocreate_inbox_folders: delivery|\ delivery.forwarding|\ delivery.imports|\ delivery.private|\ Drafts|\ Intray|\ Sent|\ Spamyes|\ Spamno|\ Trash autocreate_quota: 102400 autocreatequota_units: 1048576 autocreate_subscribe_folders: delivery|\ delivery.forwarding|\ delivery.imports|\ delivery.private|\ Drafts|\ Intray|\ Sent|\ Spamyes|\ Spamno|\ Trash client_timeout: 10 hashimapspool: 1 lmtp_downcase_rcpt: true lmtp_fuzzy_mailbox_match: true quotawarn: 5 sasl_mech_list: PLAIN sasl_pwcheck_method: saslauthd sendmail: /usr/sbin/sendmail tls_client_ca_file: /usr/local/etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt tls_server_cert: /usr/local/etc/pki/imapd/20160039.pem tls_server_key: /usr/local/etc/pki/imapd/20160039.key -- *** e-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** Do NOT transmit sensitive data via e-Mail Do NOT open attachments nor follow links sent by e-Mail James B.
