- If your old mail server stores mail in Maildir/ format, then you can simply copy mailboxes to iRedMail/iRedOS server, but make sure they are moved to correct location.

- If you store mail accounts in MySQL and passwords are encrypted with MD5 or plain text, you can simply dump them into iRedMail/iRedOS.

@Mohammadrezadeljoo

I have migrated from qmail to postfix.
The porocess was not that hard. Once you have iRedmail installed on the server.
Migrate all of user folders from /var/vpopmail/domains******  to /var/vmail/vmail1/domains*** in iredmail. Then you would have to chmod all to files vmail:vmail. One you have this migrated. Migrate you mysql vpopuser table to the new mysql in iredmail. After that change your user directories to point to /var/vmail/vmail1/domain******.  That should get you started.
Let me know if you have any questions i'll be glad to help.
