Hello, We are currently moving away from a POP3-based system (QuickMail Pro server and client) to IMAP, with Cyrus as the IMAP server and primarily Thunderbird as the client. Have already succesfully transitioned our users to using IMAP via Thunderbird. The problem we have run into is with older emails. QuickMail uses its own format for storing messages. I was able to convert these into standard MBOX format using a tool called qmptombox, which we were able to import into Thunderbird's "Local Folders". Ideally, however, we would like to have these messages reside on the IMAP server itself. Are there any tools available that will take MBOX mailboxes and insert them into Cyrus? If not, if anyone has found a suitable workaround, I would love to hear it. Thanks, Matt ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------- Hi Matt, One of my users just converted from Mac OS X running MailSmith to Cyrus with Thunderbird.
