import-maildir

This application allows to import emails directly from a maildir formatted folder to WildDuck email database, skipping any IMAP based syncing. This is mostly useful for speed and also if you do not know user passwords required for IMAP access.

Install

npm install --production

Config

Database config can be changed in config/default.toml

Run

./bin/import-maildir user1:/maildir/path1 user2:/maildir/path2 userN:/maildir/pathN

Where

• userX is either WildDuck user ID (24 byte hex), username or an email address. This user must already exist (should have been created via WildDuck API)
• /maildir/pathX is the maildir folder for that user

Example

Create users

curl -i -XPOST http://localhost:8080/users \
-H 'Content-type: application/json' \
-d '{
  "username": "user1",
  "password": "verysecret",
  "address": "user1@example.com"
}'
curl -i -XPOST http://localhost:8080/users \
-H 'Content-type: application/json' \
-d '{
  "username": "user2",
  "password": "verysecret",
  "address": "user2@example.com"
}'

Run the importer

./bin/import-maildir user1:./fixtures/user1 user2:./fixtures/user2

The output should look like this

Processing 2 users

...

Once import has finished there should be some log files in current directory. See messagelog.txt to see which file from maildir was imported into which message in WildDuck message database:
