What is the best way to convert an existing mbox setup to maildir?
Reconfiguring the MTA/MDA looks straightforward, but what is the best way
to convert existing mailboxes?
I used the attached scripts while migrating about 25 users to maildir
about a year ago.
We used IMAP before the switch that's why I had to loop over all folders
to have it look the same to the users...
The script movemail.sh is the entry point, taking the name of a file
with all usernames in it as argument. You might have to change
mbox2maildir.sh to suit your needs. The two other scripts were taken
from the net (see comments inside them).

Is there a more reasonable/saner way to maintain my system.
I am wondering is there any places where Portage stashes files that it

be safely flushed.
You might wanna take a look at tmpwatch (emerge -uDav --newuse tmpwatch)
which requires you to have a cron daemon (vixie-cron is a good choice).
And if you do maybe add something like this
PORTAGE_TMPDIR="$(/usr/bin/portageq envvar PORTAGE_TMPDIR)/portage"
PORTAGE_LOGDIR="$(/usr/bin/portageq envvar PORT_LOGDIR)"
if [[ -d ${PORTAGE_TMPDIR:-/var/tmp/portage} ]]; then
${TMPWATCH} --mtime --all 336 ${PORTAGE_TMPDIR:-/var/tmp/portage}
fi
if [[ -d ${PORTAGE_LOGDIR:-/var/log/portage} ]]; then
${TMPWATCH} --mtime --all 336 ${PORTAGE_LOGDIR:-/var/log/portage}
fi
or something similar to the end of /etc/cron.daily/tmpwatch
It will remove anything that haven't been modified for 14 days from some
common places...
Look through the other commented options found in that file as well.
If the filesystem where your distfiles is situated is mounted without
'noatime' then consider cleaning that as well...

[gentoo-user] baselayout merge failed?
Hi! When mergeing baselayout I got the following problem: The ebuild tries to copy a '.keep' file to my /home filesys. The thing is that I automount each user directory (/home/) from my server, which means that /home is not writable by anybody. When doing emerge -up baselayout it states that i don't need to update anything, so it appears that the emerge did what it should anyway... I'm a bit confused... What can/should I do? /Andreas -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
[gentoo-user] rsync daemon logs alot
Hi! I have setup one of our local hosts to be a gentoo rsync-mirror, for use within our private network.

[gentoo-user] Saying hello!
Hi! Since I became a member of this list today, I just wanted to say hello to all fellow gentoo users. I have been using gentoo on my machines at work since april-may 2003. During the summer I also setup a web/mail-server at home using gentoo. Have yet to move my home day-to-day box over to gentoo... I also happen to be the incharge sysadmin of a local church. We are in the coming days (read: during the weekend) goin to switch over from an old RedHat based server to a new gentoo based one. After that we are starting to switch OS on the workstations (there are 10 of them) from WinNT4 to gentoo. Well now u know what I'm upto when not working... ;-) Live long and prosper! /Andreas -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
Re: [gentoo-user] Mail Server error...
Look at this snippet from ezmlm manual: [EMAIL PROTECTED](*) Get the latest 30 messages from the archive. If the list has a digest, the messages returned are the messages received since the latest digest (the last message of the latest digest is returned so that there always will be at least one message). [EMAIL PROTECTED](*) Get messages 45-67 from the archive. No more than 100 messages can be returned per request. If the first argument is larger than the highest message number in the archive, you'll instead receive the latest 30 or so messages from the archive. For a list with a digest, you'll get the messages that have arrived since the last digest as well as the last up to 30 messages of that digest. Maybe that is what you are looking for? /Andreas Angel Gabriel wrote: ...
