RE: [qmailtoaster] Re: Dovecot 2.0.11 rpms for QMT available
Just the one I recommended to Scott... I've used it a couple times to migrate users from one server to another, usually from a server I don't control to one I do...when acquiring new users from another ISP... But, it's also good for migrating from non-qmail servers where filesystems, etc are different... There's one other that I use that does single accounts. I use this when someone moves to our service and wants to pull their existing mail from another provider and maintain the folder structure... Since both of these work by basically logging in via IMAP and pulling the mail, it seems to work pretty reliably, although it's been a while since I've needed to use them for moving people. Seems most people don't use their ISP mail anymore, preferring to use Gmail or something. But, I do find it useful for pulling hosting customer's mail... But, if you look through that page, you might find some that you can think of that may be useful for other people/other implementations of QMT. There are scripts to sync accounts, moving from maildir and Mbox to IMAP, etc...Although I've never used them. The creator of the scripts is/was very helpful. I had an issue with one of the scritps, e-mailed him, and we went back/forth for a few day with him making changes, and me testing until it worked... I was kind of surprised. :-) http://www.athensfbc.com/imap_tools Mike -Original Message- From: Eric Shubert [mailto:e...@shubes.net] Sent: Monday, March 28, 2011 4:59 PM To: qmailtoaster-list@qmailtoaster.com Subject: [qmailtoaster] Re: Dovecot 2.0.11 rpms for QMT available On 03/28/2011 04:51 PM, Michael J.

My old email is a windows based server called ModusMail by a company called Vircom. In looking at rsync, I'm not sure if it would work or not. I can't seem to find and RFCs on the IMAP flags.

RE: [qmailtoaster] Re: Dovecot 2.0.11 rpms for QMT available
Scott: I may have missed what you are trying to do, but I think you're trying to move actual mail folder content from one server to another, one being a QMT and one Modus. Is that right? If so, do they both support IMAP? Mike -Original Message- From: Eric Shubert [mailto:e...@shubes.net] Sent: Tuesday, March 22, 2011 4:48 PM To: qmailtoaster-list@qmailtoaster.com Subject: [qmailtoaster] Re: Dovecot 2.0.11 rpms for QMT available To run rsync on windoze, you can install cygwin, and then rsync for cygwin. This would only work with maildir mailboxes. No telling what dovecot would do with that junk once it got into the maildirs on QMT. You might still have a problem there. I'd lean toward fetchmail. Fetchmail will retrieve messages via pop3 or imap, and pass them on to qmail-smtpd for scanning and delivery. It's really pretty easy to set up. Here's a sample /root/.fetchmailrc (config) file: [root@tacs-wan ~]# cat .fetchmailrc # These are global options set no bouncemail set postmaster postmas...@mydomain.com set syslog # These are server/user options poll remote.domain.com \ protocol pop3 \ timeout 120 username myuser there \ is myu...@mydomain.com here \ antispam 554 \ fetchall \ password mypass \ smtphost localhost \ ssl \ sslcertck We should have a wiki page on using fetchmail, if we don't already.

Thanks Eric. I was trying to read the page on my iPhone and missed it. You mentioned that we who are upgrading should disable the services (dovecot 1.2.3 logging) from running. How does one go about that with these types of services? Thanks again for the write-up! I've built a test server and am going to do a mock change-over tomorrow.

I understand now. Thanks, Scott On Mar 21, 2011, at 8:19 PM, Eric Shubert e...@shubes.net wrote: Same way as you would disable courier imap, as in the wiki page. If you created supervise directory trees with run files, you need to put a down file (an empty file, literally named down) next to the run files for the service and the log. This keeps the supervise daemon from starting the service. See examples in the wiki. On 03/21/2011 06:01 PM, Scott Hughes wrote: Thanks Eric. I was trying to read the page on my iPhone and missed it.
