October 18, 20187 yr Hi, My email was previously with gmail and it is configured in my Thunderbird mail client with mac. I have now moved my domain and its mx to froxlor mx. I have tired migrating old email to froxlor via thundirbird. I could see it getting failed for some reason. All emails are also not getting copied. Finally I have managed to copy old emails manually to my server via scp. I copied emails from local system location "/Users/nisa/Library/Mail/V4/5214C655-C856-4C64-A5B2-45B4FD5B11D4/INBOX.mbox/B07A31E1-A91B-4F22-9F5D-6DBBB760A094/Data/2/8/1/Messages/*" to "/var/customers/mail/nisa/domain.com/nisa/Maildir/.Sent/cur/" copied sent folder likewise. I could see emails good meanwhile I am unable to find the attachments. Thunderbird stores attachments as files in different folder and I am unable to find the location where froxlor store its email attachments. My question is how froxlor manages the email attachments? Is it treating each attachment as file names ? I have froxlor + dovecot. Let me know the location to which I have to copy my attachments ?
October 19, 20187 yr Huh? Froxlor has absolutely nothing to do with email attachments and their storage. Emails on server-side are nothing more than PLAIN TEXT files, even WITH ATTACHMENTS (base64). So, there is no other location or whatsoever
October 19, 20187 yr Author Hi, I am aware emails have nothing to do with froxlor, I just wanted to know if email and attachments are saved differently or both in single file ? Do you think if there is some work around to copy the attachments and make it working ?
