Topic: [SOLVED] mail server migration

Hello everyone,

I would like to migrate my mail server (debian 5, iRedAdmin-0.1.1, iRedAdmin-Pro-1.1.1) to a server debian 6 (iRedMail 0.1.6, 1.6.2-iRedAdmin). I use the version with LDAP for account management.

First, I recreated the user accounts on the new server. To retrieve the mail, I transferred the contents from the old maildir to the new maildir. With this method, the emails are visible but the quota system does not consider.

How can I do to retrieve emails from my users?

On the new server, the command dovecot -n returns:

When I try to relogin to webmail I get this message "Connection to imap server failed". If I try again the message is "Login failed". What is wrong?

It means there's something wrong with your IMAP server (Dovecot), please check dovecot log file for more detail.

Also, please, create a new forum topic for your issues, not append to closed topic.
