Import multiple .mbox files from a remote server

[Nanz IT]

Currently I have a fairly large folder directory on a remote server. I would like to import all of the .mbox files onto my server with piler. The mbox files are located at 1.2.3.4/folder/folder/name/Mail. I changed to the /tmp directory and switched to user piler. WHen I ran /usr/local/bin/pilerimport -i 1.2.3.4 -u user -p password then put that directory it just gave me a message that says "connect()". I am running piler 1.1.1 currently.

-i is for imap connection. The error message says pilerimport can't connect to 1.2.3.4 on 143/tcp. You should check why.

If -i is for an imap connection what should I use then? This directory is on a different server than piler.

Mount the directory to the host where piler is installed. Or copy the files to the piler host.
