How to copy/move mails from cPanel to myVesta

hello how can move cpanel mails to vestacp webmail ?
But there is another solution.
cPanel is using the same maildir format for emails, so you can even create empty email accounts in myVesta (this is mandatory), and then simply copy those mail files from cPanel to myVesta server (destination folder will be: /home/user/mail/domain.com/emailusername/ )
After that, just delete dovecot caching files:
In your SSH, as root, run:
For specific email accounts:
Code: Select all
user=''
domain=''Code: Select all
sudo find /home/$user/mail/$domain/emailusername/ -type f -name 'dovecot*' -deleteCode: Select all
sudo find /home/$user/mail/$domain/ -type f -name 'dovecot*' -deleteCode: Select all
sudo systemctl restart dovecotCode: Select all
user='myVestaUser'
find /home/$user/mail/ -type d -exec chown $user:mail {} \;
find /home/$user/mail/*/ -type d -exec chown $user:mail {} \;
find /home/$user/mail/*/ -type f -exec chown $user:mail {} \;
