Hi All, I have been reading the thread about using "xfer" to migrate to a different server or to use imapsync instead. Both methods appear to require some additional work and I would prefer to simply copy the data across instead of using synchronization tools on live servers. (It's not a requirement to keep the email accessible during the transfer) I have around 21GB of mail to copy across and was wondering how best to do this. The mail server can (and most likely will) be stopped during the transfer. Will it be sufficient to simply copy the "/var/imap" and "/var/spool/imap" folders across? The contents of "/var/spool/imap" are all the emails and the db-files and such appear to be in "/var/imap" Or will this cause problems and is there a better/recommended method of doing this? Many thanks in advance, Joost Roeleveld ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/ Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
