Did you read an answer to you question by Copy Wright? If you want to setup each users on the server manually. You can retain the old password of every users by enabling the password learning feature of vpopmail. Next time they login, vchkpw will learn their password. The other solution is to copy the appropriate files: assign, vpasswd, and their cdb versions. Pay attention to the uid and gid, they must be the same for old and new servers, otherwise adjust accordingly. > At least some domains should be set up on my new server and therefor I > need the passwords of the users to create them... otherwise each user > must re-create him- or herself.

The method used is crypt(3). There is no way you can decode the password back. > Bye and thanks, Werner. > -- H. D. Lee
