the best way to copy it preserving date and time stamps on the mail?
cp -a
userdb:
driver: passwd
You'll probably want to use userdb static now. Or if deliver needs to
verify that the user exists, use something like:
userdb passwd {
args = uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/home/vmail/user/
}
I don't know if deliver would need to know if the user exists. If I
decide to go with the example above, would the home directory be
/home/vmail/%u or would it be as you entered above?
Also, when I do the cp -a command to copy the mail over, I also need to
change all ownership to vmail:vmail, correct?
Thanks for all of your help with this.
