I
suppose I ought to give it a try. It's described as a time-consuming process,
cracking encrypted passwords, but I suppose most of our users have pretty
mindless ones, as usual.

I'm
not sure offhand if IMail writes to the registry for the NT Database as
well. If it does....I doubt it will write the passwords out for security
reasons. Maybe someone from Ipswitch can confirm
this?
There is a tool out there to grab NT User passwords
though.....check out: www.l0pht.com
Would that also work with the NT database option?
We're using NT, but IMail exports our users in the same format described
below, so now I'm wondering if a copy exists in the registry, too? I suppose
I'll have to go rummage around in there to see...

Actually.....I'm more than likely going to have 2
different versions. 1 will be free....the other will be cheap.
The freeware version will export one domain at a time(with no limit) and
the other will export all at once.
Features:
-Export IMail Database to text
file
-Export IMail Database to ODBC Data Source(create
table on the fly)
Is this something you are intending to
sell? If you need additional testers I would be happy to give it a
try.... before I go and screw up a real domain I have created a test one
that I am doing my expermenting on so It wouldn't be a problem if there
were some glitches..

format for Exported Users text file
Michael,
I actually have a VB program that will do the
export for you complete with passwords! Directly into any ODBC
datasource you choose. IMail won't export the passwords along
with the rest of the info all by itself. The program is still in
beta at the moment, but it does in fact work for one domain at a time
if that helps you ;-)

Has anyone had experience exporting
users from a imail (registry) database to an odbc database (sql or
access)? If so what are the seperate fields in the resulting text
file when you export the users... I can figure out most of them
but want to be sure I get it right..
The current export file format seems to
be...
username:x:0:flags:fullname:userdirectory
Anyone know what the 2nd and 3rd fields
are (x:0) ???
It looks like I should be able to
import the file into access with no problem if I can identify these
two fields.
Any help will be
appreciated..
