To move a single user to a new server, in the past I've used imapsync to good effect (http://imapsync.lamiral.info/): imapsync --host1 my_old_server --authmech1 LOGIN --user1 pgoetz --password1 xxxxx --host2 my_new_server --authmech2 PLAIN --user2 pgg --password2 xxxxx In terms of a general backup scheme, since I have no idea how to set up a replication server, I've been toying with using imapsync for general backups to another (otherwise unused) imap server. I think the only way to do this for the entire mail store is to create a cyrus-backup user that has read access to all folders on the primary server and read/write access to the backup mail server. However, I haven't tested this and don't know if this will work properly. Also, as suggested by Marcus Schopen, this is liable to be quite slow, as each user has be to synced individually AFAIK. (I'm pretty sure the last time I used imapsync it was free, but the author appears to now be selling it.) ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://www.cyrusimap.org/ List Archives/Info: http://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/pipermail/info-cyrus/ To Unsubscribe: https://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/mailman/listinfo/info-cyrus
