When you export the imail registry hive
Look at the resulting file...
If there are hard references to C:
Then run a search/replace all to update to D

If you use SQL for user databases then you'll have to write a small sql
script to update the mailbox path's for every mailbox. The physcal path
is stored in each row.

Other than that, its exactly what I've done many times.

Subject: [Declude.JunkMail] OT IMail Backup/Restore

Hi,

I think this is going to work

I need to backup IMail from the C Drive, reformat the server, create D
drive and then put IMail back on D Drive.

I figure the way to do this is

Old Server

Stop all IMail services
Backup IMail and all directories

Make new server
Install IMail on new server D Drive
Patch it to same level
Restore the IMail directories to D Drive Check all drive references
Start Services


This should move all the mail and users etc etc

Obviously fix all the Declude filter paths etc.

Will this work?

Thanx
