Backup mail config
« on: February 16, 2010, 07:43:00 PM »
Hello,

We are migrating to a new machine but we have this fab idea. We did a fresh install, and the only things we want to move over from the old server are the user accounts, groups and any mail they might have.
All other components are being configured from scratch.

Is there a way to backup and transfer only this part of the configuration?
I know where the user folders are but I'm unsure whether or not simply moving the user folders will create the new users , paswords and groups on the new server.

Thanks for the input.
