Great to hear you are upgrading to a recent version.

Several days seems excessive, though 240Gb... You are able to stop it at
anytime and continue. The current dbmail-util -m limit has a default
migration of 10000 which may help with confidence that something is
happening, not sure about 3.1.17 the limit may have been added after.

I'm running 3.2.3 here with a few important bug-fixes that may still be
in github, though the kind people at FreeBSD have included them in their
ports.

You should still have access to your emails and be able to have new ones
delivered without issue. The migration updates header fields so the
sooner the migration completes the better.

Regards,
Alan Hicks

hi

which bug-fixes are you referring to? I'm considering adding them to the
gentoo ebuild too.

Paul will may be better able to advise, but the source at
http://git.dbmail.eu/paul/dbmail/ has updates that haven't been put into
a release yet.

I've got a task to fix an open issue with MySQL 5.7
http://dbmail.org/mantis/view.php?id=1078 alas I've been distracted for
some weeks...

Alan

@Paul: could you be convinced to make a new release for packaging those
latest fixes easier?
