I don't know much about MDaemon, and not many people here will if it's
an obscure Windows mail server.  Also note that this is a mailing list
for SquirrelMail issues, not for issues pertaining to your mail
server.  SquirrelMail is only a mail *client*.

If you can involve your users and you have given them IMAP access on
both servers, you can simply provide instructions for how they can use
any IMAP desktop client to add both accounts and drag and drop their
messages between accounts.  Otherwise, you can try to see if any of
these options will work:

If none of those work in a Windows environment, it's probably much
better if you contact the MDaemon support resources to find out how to
extract the mail spools in a useful format.
