This is the recommended method. But how far are you willing to degrade performance for the sake of getting away from Outlook? Are you anticipating storing 300 MB of messages and accessing them via IMail's Web Messaging as the primary client (not recommended, by any means)? Or are you going to continue to utilize Outlook via IMAP once the migration is complete? You need to do some real baselining to determine the appropriateness of each option and describe your project in more detail: "PST to IMail" certainly does not tell enough of the story. --Sandy ------------------------------------ Sanford Whiteman, Chief Technologist Broadleaf Systems, a division of Cypress Integrated Systems, Inc. e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] SpamAssassin plugs into Declude! http://www.mailmage.com/products/software/freeutils/SPAMC32/download/release/ Defuse Dictionary Attacks: Turn Exchange or IMail mailboxes into IMail Aliases! http://www.mailmage.com/products/software/freeutils/exchange2aliases/download/release/ http://www.mailmage.com/products/software/freeutils/ldap2aliases/download/release/ To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html List Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/
