RE: memory usage....help....
Most of the amount of used memory is all disk buffed to memory: 208584K buff. This is a normal thing and this used disk cache in memory will be freed up if an application needs it. J.W.

You could also, if you are planning to drop the old server offline immediately upon getting the new server running properly, set this up using MX records. Set the new server's IP as a lower priority MX in the DNS files and wait for it to propagate and then drop the old server offline. The SMTP hosts on the other end *should* then automatically switch to the lower priority MX record when they see that the normal MX host is unreachable and start sending to it. You can then at your leisure set your DNS files to the proper MX and let them propagate as normal with no interruption in service. Good luck!
