I'm migrating amavisd to a new server. This is the easy part, and I'm mostly 
done.

The problematic point is that I'm switching from the database format used by 
the squirrelmail amavisd-milter plugin to the stock database layout. And 
honestly, I'm pretty seriously trying to decide what things I am going to 
bother bringing over to the new system at all. Besides having to translate the 
whitelist and blacklist and personal scores for everyone, I am tempted to leave 
everything else alone and let the data rebuild. This does endanger some e-mail 
that would have inserted in the DB on outbound for easier return, but other 
than that I'm kindof unsure what else needs to be grabbed.

Opinions on this?

... yes yes I wrote this before I sat down to look carefully at the db 
structures. I'm mostly wondering what if anything people found "essential" in a 
DB migration.
