L.S. I have two servers: one running Win2k and one running Debian. At the moment the Win2k server is running a couple of mail domains, but I would like to move them to the Linux server. (so I can take the Win2k server offline and upgrade it to Debian ;-) What is the best way to do this? I have

I would rather move all the users and their Maildirs to the new server and change the DNS entries and shutdown the old server. Mail might bounce from some senders for a few hours, but after that it'll work great. Do some testing first to see if you can just copy the domains folder and all your

In that case you want to remove the old server as MX and setup the new server as the primary MX, but the config should be as backup MX. When no more mail is going to the old server (within 6 hours, but maybe 8-12 to be safe) then shut down BOTH and transfer the files to the new one and make sure

It sounds to me like you have either hardware problem with you NIC card or you should try uninstalling TCP/IP from you adapter and reinstalling it. I have had this problem with a 3com nic before and had to reinstall drivers. Might wanna take a look at that...but am willing to bet it is not an
