This is typically the recommended path of transition actually. UW ships with a "mailutil" tool that allows you to move mailboxes between severs pretty easily. (Provided, of course, that UW gets the IMAP seen state right given your current files). Note that Cyrus probably uses different format UIDs than qpopper does, which is a problem that can likely only be solved by modifying cyrus. -Rob -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Rob Siemborski * Andrew Systems Group * Cyert Hall 207 * 412-268-7456 Research Systems Programmer * /usr/contributed Gatekeeper
