Re: Migrate SQL version to LDAP

Unfortunately, we don't have such tool. You have to write some script to export mail accounts, then convert to LDAP LDIF file, then import the LDIF.

Another possible way:

*) Setup a new server with different backend.
*) Create new mail accounts which are exactly same as old server. It's ok to use different password right now.
*) Dump passwords from old server, update users on new server to use dumped passwords. so that they have same passwords as old server.
*) Migrate mailboxes with imapsync or other tools you prefer.
