Subject:[courier-users] converting all to usage of courierActions...

Hello,

I'm using a mail server (postfix w/mailbox) with a standard UW IMAP server (with real users). I'd like to go the courier way :-) My problem is that I have a lot of users, and I can't tell to them "Drop all your mail and go the new mail server". So I need to write a tool that converts from mailbox format to maildir format (and to the new IMAP storage format). I found a perl script (mbox2maildir) from qmail that does this but it is really incomplete as it only parses the /var/spool/mail/USER file. I have to parse the user's directory too for the IMAP folders too (and create them). And I have to generate the final quota state for each user too :-(

I'd like to know if there is already a program that does this, and if not, what would be the best way to implement it ?

Thanks, Luc
