Hi,
I am planning a large pop3 -> pop3 + imap migration across data centers
and countries.
I just found out about perdition and I need to understand if it will
help solve a few problems.
1 - Usernames with ' . ' (dots) in it.
There are several usernames with dots in it. The destination
server is a Cyrus Imapd with the default
hierarchy setup (no dots).
For what I read in the pertitiondb man page, I could use
something like:
(.*)\.(.*):$1_$2@newserver:port
Where the account in the new server will obviously have an
underscore to replace the dot.
Is this right?
2 - --outgoing_server* *SERVER_A,SERVER_B*
*
It was not clear yet, how will --outgoing_server works.*
* On each connection it will connect to one of ther servers
only. Is that it?
If so, whats the advantage?
*
* Or will it connect to both servers and retrieve messages from
both? (what I need)
I understand that on a imap server this is not so easy, but on
pop3 doent seems to be a big challenge.
If this is not how it works? Is there something that could be
done achieve this behaviour?
3 - virtual domain support: user@domain
This is not clear to me.
For what I understood, this will be split into user as the
login and domain will be the host to connect.
Is that right?
If so, how can I prevent it?
Also How do I map it?
e.g.: user@domain to server:port
user@domain:user@domain@server:port
is that it?
Thanks,
Raul
