Topic: Need help migrating users to new iRedMail w/mysql server

I have an old sendmail server with several hundred users and domains I'd like to migrate to my new iRedMail running MySQL server.  I understand that Postfix can use virtual accounts via mysql or standard password/shadow file.  Can it do both?  I'd prefer not to use password/shadow and would rather find a way to import them into mysql.  Any direction that anyone could point me in would be very helpful. Thanks.

Re: Need help migrating users to new iRedMail w/mysql server

Currently, i don't know how to migrate passwords in /etc/shadow into MySQL. but it's easy to migrate into LDAP backend.

You can refer to files shipped within iRedMail: tools/create_mail_user_*
