You must have a directory (with a lot of files (mails)) per pop3-user. 2) You have to migrate to qmail-vchkpw but you must preserve your old mails (mails not readed) 3) You ask for how to do it It's this correct? You say : YES The problem with NS-Mail-Server is that put a CR+NL to all the email stored and qmail-vchkpw don't understand. Then, you have to translate all the old-email from old-account to the new directory (the account is the same [EMAIL PROTECTED]),so in NSMS it's place in /var/nsmail/. and in qmail /home/vpopmail/domain/domain1.com/user1/Maildir/new. Once you have move from NSMS to qmail, you have to make a dos2unix command to all the files. Then do: recode ibmpc..lat1 * and put the rigth owner:group and permissions that i postted to the list yesterday. That's all really. If you don't understand what i'm saying, please tell me and i'll try to explain you in other way.
Re: required conversion from Netscape mail server to QMAIL
hi all iam using Netscape mail server due to the cost, i have shifted to Qmail Nice ... :) what is my problem is how do i convert the existing mails from netscape mail server to qmail server if not, how do i ask my existing user to check pull mail from existing mail server to here Maybe you can advice your Netscape server to resend all stored and queued mail via a relay-server to your qmail-box. That would be the easiest way i think :) Greets, Thomas

Re: required conversion from Netscape mail server to QMAIL
iam using Netscape mail server due to the cost, i have shifted to Qmail my qmail setup running fine, i have setup like this Qmail+vpopmail+mysql+qmailadmin+sqwebmail about 2 weeks ago I migrated from Netscape Message Server for that a little program were created to parse LDIF-file which could be created by netscape export. all accounts were succesfully processed (including passwords in SHA-1 format). but messages... their were leaved on old server. from where they could be taken by users by themselves, i dont know how to resolve this automatically.
Re: required conversion from Netscape mail server to QMAIL
hello sir what iam looking is not new mail, iam looking old stored mails to move to new qmail server with out dropping singel mail so the my clients will have transparent moving to qmial server with new look and old mails thanks What I did when I had to do something similar was to compile vpopmail with clear text passwords and learn passwords, as well as using MySQL. I wrote a little perl script that would query the MySQL db once every hour or so, and collect all the users who had a clear text password set and weren't the postmaster. From that, I built a config file for fetchmail, then ran fetchmail against the old server (still running), and reinjected the mail into the new qmail server. Good Luck! any advice hari Dave W

hari_bhr escribió: hi all iam using Netscape mail server due to the cost, i have shifted to Qmail Great chance what is my problem is how do i convert the existing mails from netscape mail server to qmail server I got it. NS-Mail Servers adds a DOS (NL+CR) to the messages. You need to pass-trought a shell to converts. That's what i did: Notes: 01.zip=all the mail from one client compress for get from old mail server to new mail server 199*=all the mail from year 1999 (NS-MailServer nomenclator) 200*=all the mail from year 2000 (NS-MailServer nomenclator) The shell: ## First, I compress all the old email from my client in a zip file called 01.zip and put it in /root/cambio if [ -r /root/cambio/01.zip ] ; then ## Copy to the right place cp /root/cambio/01.zip /home/vpopmail/domains/aac.es/user1/Maildir/new cd /home/vpopmail/domains/aac.es/a.calandria/Maildir/new ## Uncompress it unzip 01 ## Convert (that's equal to dos2unix command) recode ibmpc..lat1 199* 200** rm *.zip ## Put the rigth permission and owner:group chown vpopmail:vchkpw 199* 200* chmod 600 199* 200* fi ## That's all folks and so, continue to all your user. I hope that you understand me (sorry about my english).

Aside from parsing Netscape's message format (no idea what would be involved in this), you could of course simply fetch the data over pop3 and save it in the maildir of the user. If you don't have cleartext passwords available, then you could have vpopmail log them to some file (although I guess you'd need to patch it in order to do this).
