    Hi all,

    Am I assuming correct that if I stop dovecot,spamassassin,amavis,postgrey and postfix (multi server setup - email server only) nothing will be writing/reading into /var/vmail ?

    I'm asking as I want to copy/sync all data from /var/vmail to a larger storage. I will of course change fstab entry to point to the new storage and then reboot in order to start all above services reading/writing to the new dir.

    Thanks

    Yes, that's the case.

    You might comment the ispconfig cron jobs while syncing, too.
