Hello,

now that I've installed the new cyrus-imapd
version 2.0.13 I'd like to move the users´
messages from the old 1.6.19 to the new
2.0.13 installation.

Though I've already done it, the users are
still working with the old installation,
and I'm not sure if the moving of the messages
has really been correct although the new
installation seems to work faultlessly with the
old messages.

I've done the following:

Copying /var/spool/imap/user,
  /var/imap/deliverdb, .../quota, .../user
  to the new installation.
Converting /var/imap/mailboxes to /var/imap/mailboxes.db:
  ctl_mboxlist -u < mailboxes

(The mailbox ascii type file was part of my 1.6.19
 installation.)

Then I reconstructed the whole thing (necessary,
recommended?).

Is this correct and sufficient?

P.S.: Of course /usr/sieve should be copied too.
