Hi Anders, We just completed a migration from 2.0.16 to 2.2.10 and we ended up using a file system copy with NFS. (two servers, one with 1500 users and 54 GB of mail, the other with 5,500 users and 15GB of mail) This is on RHEL 3.0 using Simon's RPM's. (Simon, we can't thank you enough!)

Hiya! I'm about to upgrade my "old" server to a newer platform, both hardware, O/S and Cyrus itself are going to be new versions. So, how can I ensure that all mail is moved correctly from the old platform to the new? I have around 3000 accounts with lots of e-mails stored in the IMAP folders
