Hi,
Same "problem" here. I have a Windows 2000 box with IMail 8.2x and an old
Declude version.
I want to move to a new machine with Windows 2003 and I *don't* want to
transfer old IMail settings. Just the mailboxes and the user settings. I
want to have a "clean" (as clean as possible) setup on the new machine.
I've done several upgrades and moves in the past but there was never such
a big difference in the way IMail works. Usually I'd install the old
version on the new box, do the transfer as per KB IM-19980116-JB11, and
then upgrade the new box.
I want to preserve the old box with the old software for a few days as a
fall back in case something does not work.
I'm testing the new software on a separate testbox and would like to copy
all settings from that box to the new production machine which will run
the same software. After that I want to move just the user settings and
mailboxes to the new machine and be up and running.
Maybe Trip Allen or Kevin Gillis can give us a few hints how to go about this.
Seems like, if I copy the mailboxes and just the registry settings for
HKLM\Software\Ipswitch\IMail\<domain>* to the new machine running the new
version of IMail all should work.
* <domain> being both the name and the ip-number for each domain.
Kevin, Trip, how about it?
Groetjes,
Bonno Bloksma

Thanks Markus. I was able to find that but I'm in the exact same boat as
the original poster:
- Currently on Imail 8.22 running Windows 2000
- Moving to Imail 2006.1 on a new (different) server running Windows 2003
I wasn't sure on the best practice either, whether it's best to start with a
clean install of 2006.1 and transfer into that, or install 8.22 on the new
2003 server, transfer everything, then upgrade to 2006.1?

For such tasks it's always a good idea to consider the knowledge base:

We are looking to do the exact same thing for about 70 domains (400
users), and are using the Imail DB.

What database do you have the domains configured to use?
