If you can export your user information to a text file then you can just use a simple batch file to add the users to Imail. My example here is pretty lame, however it has some functionality. Export your user information to a text file that looks something like this. call letsadd joebob slimeball Joe Bob call letsadd sallysue sicko Sally Sleeze Write this as a batch file. Then write a batch called letsadd.bat like this: adduser -u %1 -n "%3 %4" -p %2 -chgpass -info echo Added user %1 successfully>>d:\logfile\adduser.log You could probably write something slicker than this in Perl. None the less you could do something as simple as this to add a user without having to do it manually. Hopefully you get the idea anyway.
