Hi Bill, This is not really complicated. I usually setup the new server running the IMail Setup, or in our case, we're using our software distribution.
The only thing you should watch: Choose the same application folder for IMail, eg. C:\IMail, C:\Program Files\IMail as the old one and do not add any domains on the new server. After that export from the registry HKLM\Software\ipswitch\IMail\Domains. Stop all IMail related services on the new baby and import the registry. Don't forget to copy all the data from the hosts and the spool directory into the same location on the new server. If you want to keep all settings from the old server, you can export the registry from one level above: HKLM\Software\ipswitch\IMail. If you're deciding to change some directories, you can change it directly in registry. At the end, start the IMail services. ============================================ Am Donnerstag, 13.
