Re: Converting from BSD mailbox format to Cyrus v2 format
Thanks for the tip, I will have a try at it hopefully this week-end, and let you know in case it doesn't work well.

Try the 'mboxcvt' tool in the imap-utils package ftp://ftp.cac.washington.edu/mail/imap-utils.tar.Z I've used it to take archives of large mailing lists/newsgroups (in mbox format) and feed them into a mailbox on my Cyrus server. I also believe that these tools might be deprecated and replaced by the more general 'mailutil' in the UW IMAP distro. -- Kenneth Murchison Oceana Matrix Ltd.

Converting from BSD mailbox format to Cyrus v2 format
Hello, I will need to migrate a few users which were on an old OpenBSD mail server using the original BSD mailbox format to the new Cyrus v2.1.9 mailstore format. I've already read the book Managing IMAP but unfortunately their scripts are for Cyrus v1.5 which was a bit different from Cyrus v2 because it's now using Berkley DB. So does anyone have any tips or tools on how to convert BSD mailboxes to the new Cyrus v2 mailstore ? Many thanks Regards Marc
