Hi
I just migrated from standard unix mailbox to cyrus-imap. The migration tools distributed with cyrus-imap somewhat obscure and largely undocu- mented so I ended up writing my own, which I hope are better and I would like to make available for anyone who might find them usefull. They are here:
http://www.daemonsecurity.com/src/cyrus-imap.tgz
Some reasons I find them better:
1) Supports virtual domains 2) Can be run multiple times, posibility of reducing downtime 3) Easier to tweak
2: On first run, let your MTA keep delivering mail to the local mailbox, then shut it down. On second run, the migration script will only trans-
fer new mails, this is considerably faster.
3: This is ofcourse partly personal because I wrote it. But, there is not inherent scripts calling scripts calling scripts etc.
Since I have migrated, I have lost interest in further tweaking, bug- reports and suggestions are welcome.
