Recently moved company off exchange onto Cyrus-IMAP. That went well, but I have users that miss the pst containers of exchange and outlook. They used them to store old messages and remove them from the system and back them up on some removable medium. So they would put say all of 2002 messages in a pst file call 2002.pst and then if they ever needed this they would be able to open it and look through the messages.
I've decided to try and come up with a way they can do this with the current IMAP setup. Quick response isn't really important. Currently they have folders under the IMAP inbox like: INBOX -2002 --Received --Sent So I was thinking that I would just tar up the 2002 directory on the IMAP server and then remove the directory and move the tar file to a CDR. Would it be that easy or am I missing something?
