I just switched from qmail to postfix and then renamed and moved all my mail sud-directories around. maildir files can be moved around without worry, just stay consistent. If it was in cur/ move it to the corresponding cur/ in the new directory. Same with new/ . As usual, back up your collection before you moving stuff around. Then use it for a month or two before accepting that it went ok. hth, Cooper. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
