Dan,
Right
on man, my situation is pretty messed up anyways, the client doesn't want to
pay, so I might not even have to do this migration at all.
Emumail sucks anyways, IMail is the way to
go.
I'll
let you know how it turns out.

No I wasn't using emumail, I was using
Communigate Pro by Stalker Software (has both pop and webmail). I am not
sure if just renaming the ext will work with emumail. I have only tested
the ext change with Communigate, I haven't migrated yet. I would suggest
installing imail on another computer and copy the mailbox files (one with
separate folders preferred) of a user, change ext and move to the user folder
in imail. See if it works...that is how I checked. If you can't
check this way, send a mailbox file to me and I can check for
you.

Dan,
were you running emumail on your system when you
migrated to Imail? Really, setting up all the new accounts is easy,
I'm just worried about loosing clients inboxes when changing the extension
name, but if it's that easy, then I'll take your word for
it.
Thanks!

Thank you Daniel,
I had a small problem finding the knowledge
base but I found my problem. It was just way to easy.
Rick
All I had to do to migrate was change the ext
to mbx instead of mbox on the mail files. I haven't tried to move an
account with multiple folders yet but I do not see to much trouble with
that.

Migrating email
If you figure this out, please let me know, I
am running EMUMail on my server currently, and would like to migrate to
IMail without loosing any users mailboxes. I run IMail on another
server an totally love it.
thanks
rick
I have not seen anything in the manual
about migrating from another email server. I am currently
running Communigate Pro by Stalker software and was thinking on moving
to imail. Is there a way to transfer the .mbox files
(communigate) to .mbx format of imail so I do not loose any stored
mail?
Any help would be
appreciated
Dan
