you can use the "reg" command.  i think it comes with nt out of the box.  if
not, its in the resource kit.  very good command-line registry utility.
with reg, you can use the following command to just get the imail subkey
tree:

reg backup HKLM\Software\IPSwitch\IMail c:\backup\imailregbackup.txt

you can even run this backup or script from another machine and backup the
registry remotely by specifying the nt name of the imail server at the end
of the command:
(the user context running the command must have remote access to the
registry, though)

reg backup HKLM\Software\IPSwitch\IMail c:\backup\imailregbackup.txt
\\IMAILServerName

Good people of Imail land,

     First I have figured out that the "regback.exe" will not work for your
advantage. If you go to the command line and use the Regback command it will
backup the registry for Imail just fine. The problems is, when you try to
restore the registry it will not work.
I called the Tech support people and they confirmed this also. The regback
will not restore your registry.

They have however, told me that if I could make a batch file to go to the
REGEDIT  and pull the registry then you can restore it from that.

So my good smart Email controllers, does anyone know  how to make this work.
I am looking for a command line or how to create a batch file that will grab
the registry from the regedit and save it somewhere.

If someone could help me with this I would be forever in dept to you.

Thank you,


Scott Van Singel
