My work place uses an Alt-N Mdaemon mail server that now has over 100 user accounts.I have been looking to switch over to linux based solution (this is the only critical server we have left still running on Windows).
Is there anyone on this list who has had experience moving users from Mdaemon to a linux based email server? Mdaemon stores users' address books in xml format, email messages in text files (separate files for each msg), has a web based interface called WordlClient, antivirus and a host of other features. Their website is www.altn.com
last time i did something similar was 4 years ago.. but i recall that m-daemon can export its userdb to a format you like, either CVS, tab/comma/whatever delimited, etc .. and this definitely becomes easier to move to linux.
Also, I remember that m-daemon emails (well, the version i used at that time)... were stored in maildir format. I remember using a converter to get them from maildir to mbox (because the maildir format of mdaemon was not really "linux-friendly".., but all worked well after the conversion.
i hope this helps.
regards,
ernest. _______________________________________________ LUG mailing list [email protected] http://kym.net/mailman/listinfo/lug %LUG is generously hosted by INFOCOM http://www.infocom.co.ug/
