Hello,
I’ve just converted an old manually managed server to Yunohost. I’m now looking for a way to import my existing users. I already have 4 users with emails. I would appreciated a simple solution.
Big thanks in advance.
Hello,

I do not understand why my post was retitled: I do not want to transfer emails from one server to another, I only have a single server already converted.
Transfering emails from one to another is certainly a good solution in some circumstances, but here I mostly looking for a magical command like yunohost user import johndoe
. And if not existing, how can I do it by myself?
Other idea: yunohost user create --uid --gid --existing...
I think this could work:
userdel user1
yunohost create user1
# Next you might apply permissions and owner on files own by the user1
Note: convert an existing debian with a lot of stuff into a yunohost could be less stable than install yunohost from iso or from a fresh debian.
Sorry, completely misunderstood the question !
Title was confusing
Yes, I did this. And then, I finally understand why the initial answers were focused on mail conversion: it was not trivial to restore my emails.
I followed official documentation without any success using dsync, so I used mb2md.pl successfully.
Yes, I have this feeling too.
I’m now fighting with fetchmail: for an unknown reason, fetchmail successfully transfers to postfix which in turn fires procmail. But the later complains about /var/mail/user
format and moved the whole directory. I have to understand why mail delivery does not work locally: why procmail is not configured to use MailDir format or why postfix use procmail here instead of using dovecot as LDA?
