To export the mailbox for user@acme.com as a zip file use this command:
/opt/zimbra/bin/zmmailbox -z -m user@acme.com getRestURL \
‘//?fmt=zip&query=is:anywhere’ > user_at_acme_com.zip
Here is the same as a tgz file:
/opt/zimbra/bin/zmmailbox -z -m user@domain.com getRestURL \
“//?fmt=tgz” > /tmp/account.tgz
And here’s a restore of the tgz file:
/opt/zimbra/bin/zmmailbox -z -m user@domain.com postRestURL \
“//?fmt=tgz&resolve=reset” /tmp/account.tgz

have you tried zip restore?
does it work for you?
this is for 1 user.. but what about couple (100’s) more is there some script or something like this? thanks 🙂
Xtrange, if you want to use it for all users simply run this:
/opt/zimbra/bin/zmprov -l gaa domain.org > /opt/zimbra/backup/users.list
for mbox in
cat /opt/zimbra/backup/users.list;do
/opt/zimbra/bin/zmmailbox -z -m $mbox getRestURL ‘//?fmt=zip&query=is:anywhere’ > /opt/zimbra/backup/domain/$mbox_
date +'%Y%m%d_%H%M%S'.zipdone
Where do you input this command? I’m trying to export my emails from Zimbra and re-import them to gmail with my folders in tact. Any way to do this?
Thanks for the great script Monk, however I needed to alter:
“/opt/zimbra/backup/domain/$mbox_
date +'%Y%m%d_%H%M%S'.zip”to
“/opt/zimbra/backup/${mbox}_
date +'%Y%m%d_%H%M%S'.zip”otherwise it would not name the files with the mbox name, and I had no subdir of backup called domain.
HI … I would like to knw how to extract mails from zimbra between specific dates, and after extracting how should i view them
