Scripts to mount a borg backup and scan all the contends of /home/users for old email and import to mailpiler

[ediazrod]

On the backup server restore the copy what you want to use.

the uuid must be the same user than connect using sshfs

/programas/scripts/backup_borg/borg-linux64 mount -o uid=1000,gid=1000,allow_other /datos/backup_borg/backup::myservermailbackup-2020-12-31T02:00:03 /mnt/1

form you mailpiler install using root
sshfs uuiduser@servername.com:/mnt/1 /mnt/correo -o Ciphers=aes128-ctr -o Compression=no -o ServerAliveCountMax=2 -o ServerAliveInterval=15

cd /var/tmp
find /mnt/correo/datos/ClonBorg/home/ -type f -name *servername.com* -exec sh -c 'gzip -dc "{}" | pilerimport -e -' ;

wait a few days and see on the logs how pilerimport injects the mails

After of that you can use another backup...

Thanks to you to have this wonderfully software we need a donate button.. the gzip- -dc command is if you mails are compressed if is not you can delete gzip -dc "{}" | and replace with a cat "{}"
