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 
machine will get them nothing>

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.
