Email Transfer?

[bmartin]

I just switched from interworx to directadmin. I have all my accounts transfered but my question is how do I transfer the old emails that were on my interworx server?

Thanks

That depends on how Interworx saves them, and on whether or not you've installed Dovecot on your DirectAdmin server.

I am assuming no dovecot. I am running a new standard install right now, unless dovecot is installed standard. I was using roundcube on my interworx server.

Is your Interworx server saving emails in mbox or Maildir format?

If Interworx uses mbox format then you'll want to move all the mailbox files before you update DA to use Dovecot. If Interworx uses Maildir format, then you'll want to convert DA first.

If you're not sure where your files are stored or how to move them you might want to contact a system administrator with email experience to either consult with you or to do the email move.
