I thought I suggested that??? If you want all the messages in the old db, then the auto_increment will be much faster and more reliable. If you are wanting to filter out some messages such as only transfer mail that is <1 year old, then imapsync would be a better choice for that. If you already have mail in your new db, you can use the mysql update to move those new messages to a new number. You will also want to update you phsmessage_id to a number bigger than the largest on the old db.

Hello,

the migration is complete. I moved the following tables and everything worked out just fine. If I need to get the messages back in, I'll load up dbmail on a test server and use IMAPsync to transfer the messages.

don't use imapsync for that! If you setup the other tables with the correct auto_increment values like I suggested, you can probably simply transfer and load dumps of the other tables. Much more efficient than imapsync.

I've got a dump of the original database.
