hi everyone,

i have rented multiple root-servers but handle mail on a single machine
running courier (incl. imap). i recently grew tired of the bad support
at provider A and decided to move the services running on that machine,
which basically is the mailserver and some supplementary things, to
another machine at provider B.

i looked into the maildir-folders and noticed the filenames all
containing the machine's hostname. i also vaguely remember that some MTA
somehow linked messagequeue-files to the inode-numbers on disk where
they are located, but that could have been qmail, which i ran prior to
courier.


the question is: can i move the files to the new machine without any
consequences, or do i have to make certain changes to the files so that
all courier-services on the new machine recognize them?

can this even be done with the message-queue (not sooo important,
because i can flush it)?


for any input on this matter grateful,

sebastian lechte
