As it turned out there were only around 30 domains to move. I just created new domains and assigned the new IP's. Then I imported
the user & list reg entries. It looks like everything worked great. Thanks again for your help (on Sunday & a holiday as well.....
I am impressed :-). Have a great (what's left of it) weekend!

As long as you make sure there are no duplicate Virtual IP's being used before importing it you should be fine...Again export current one prior the import just in case....

One more thing....
Can I just take everything from the Domains branch and export it, then edit it, & install it into the other server with out overwriting my existing records or should I take each domain & IP record separately and do it one record at a time?.
Thanks Again,
Gary

Get the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ipswitch\IMail\Domains\mail.domain.com] and the one corresponding to the IP (Real or Virtual) pointed to in the address value in the above key. If it is an IP'less domain make sure the IP and Address are not duplicates of ones you already have. Keep in mind the .reg file he is giving you is a flat text file you can edit with any text editor (notepad, textpad<my preference>, UltraEdit, etc) to make the changes necessary...After you have made any necessary changes and merged these into the registry go into the IMail Administrator and set the Top Directory to the one that meets your needs..also double check the Host Aliases if any.. With all this in place you should be good to go...Of course, for safety's sake export your keys so you can get back to where you started just in case you miss something like I sometimes do.
Hope this helps

I have a customer who wants to move his IMail customers to a different Imail server so he can shut his down. He is running the same version (8.12) and has a separate IP for each domain (as we do). He sent me some registry entries for his domains/users [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ipswitch\IMail\Domains\mail.domain.com\Users]but when I add one of his entries to our registry it shows up with all of the users from our base domain (first one created on our server). The only difference between our "base" domain and the others is that the users are under /IMail/Users instead of like the rest (IMail/mail.domain.com/Users). I have looked through the manual but must be missing something. I am sure there is an easy way to do this.....
Thanks,
Gary
