Ignoring the migration of individual mailboxes addressed in other replies, I
trust you've met Perdition - very useful for this sort of situation,
http://horms.net/projects/perdition/
to provide an IMAP "Server" (actually proxy) that knows where the real
mailboxes are located, and directs connections accordingly. That way you can
migrate mailboxes one-by-one as you've migrated them, helpful to test a few
mailboxes first without affecting the bulk of users' mailboxes atall.
cheers,
Andrew.
