replication - correct way to transfer a mailbox?

[Edward Prendergast]

Hi,

 

Managed to solve the previous problem of errors like this:

USER received NO response

by changing the slave's imapd.conf thusly:

virtdomains: yes 

to 

virtdomains: userid

 

So I can now transfer users as follows:

 

/usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/sync_client -v -l -u info at client.office

 

Which produces the following output:

 

Oct 26 11:33:03 chrisnux sync_client[14777]: USER info at client.office

Oct 26 11:33:03 chrisnux sync_client[14777]: USER received NO response:
IMAP_MAILBOX_NONEXISTENT Failed to access inbox for info at client.office:
Mailbox does not exist

Oct 26 11:33:03 chrisnux sync_client[14777]: ADDSUB info at client.office INBOX

 

Is this error merely cosmetic? It appears that cyrus creates the account,
detects there is no mailbox then copies the mailbox across. Am I
understanding this correctly?

 

If not, what is the correct command to transfer the mailbox? I know I'll
need to use sync_client with the -m switch, but how is the specific user's
mailbox specified?

 

Thanks,

Edward
