POP3 => Scalix migration [fetchmail] problem ? [solved]

Postby daniel.sand » Mon May 07, 2007 4:32 am

Greetings,

problem:

Im trying to migrate a _complete_ POP3 Mailbox.

The Migration guides tells me to keep my old mailclient and install the scalix plugin as addition.

This is not really what i want.

fetchmail solution is borked, its not possible to fetchall pop3 mails... im not sure why... i've stumble upon rumors that mails on pop3 that _not_ marked as unread get not delivered....

for the book. i have 291Mails in the POP3 account and only 93 are getting delivered to my scalix mailboxx account.... and sendmail tells me that 271 was sent...

---
log -> fetchmail: Message xx@xxx.de:291 of 291 (4723 Bytes) not deleted

grep "May 4" maillog | egrep "16:36|16:37" | grep Sent | wc -l
271
---

ok fetchmail skips 20 msgs and scalix doesnt show all.... why ?

other solutions: ?

getmail solution sounds good but i dont find any docs on using an MDA way to deliver the mail localy to scalix ? ( maybe it is possible over unix.in or xport.in ? )

or is there maybe another way ?

EDIT:

ok. this is what i get if i play around and import one mailbox more then once. Looks like i managed to NOT delete the old imported messages from the box complete. I just removed the mailbox user from scalix and made a new one. Reimported all and in the moment it looks fine.

Just wondering why even the Purge All Deleted mail in SAC has not done the job...
