Generally the issue has been when wanting something the GUI tools do not provide when editing conf files manually you run the risk of Apple Software Updates wiping out the changes to the conf files or the GUI tools not parsing them correctly.

My idea was to just copy the data files, as I epect dovecot uses compatible files and formats on each platform. Has anyone tried this?
