That's not too far. Shouldn't present a pb, in my experience

can't do that, since www is on the new machine, where :8383 will on that

It's easier to copy web sites directories than the mail server, imo. ( Is
there a way to copy the IIS / MMC config or is that stuck in the registry? )
DNS:
$ORIGIN peake.com.
@ MX mail.peake.com.
mail MX mail.peake.com.
webmail MX mail.peake.com.
www A ip.ad.re.ss ; 3-feet-away machine
webmail A ip.ad.re.ss ; current machine
mail A ip.ad.re.ss ; current machine
I suggest that you stop IIS on webmail and tell all your users that from
now on they web mail at
http://webmail.peake.com
without all that geeky :8383 stuff people often forget.
