IMail - How to move the users directory in SQL
Dave
In reply to 21 Dec message from [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
>I recently did this and with an external database, it was no
>fun at all. If it is using Imail's registry to store the
>user information, I think it is as simple as changing the
>information in the Imail administrator. If you use an
>external database, you can move the folder to the d drive but
>you will have to move the users over using a SQL command for
>each table (domain name).
>I couldn't find any documentation either and calling Ipswitch
>didn't help as their tech support told me (in error) that
>they would not support having users outside of the Imail
>directory or on any other drive separate from Imail. That
>was later retracted as the tech support person I spoke with
>was in error on that issue.
>It works fine for me. I had to run the command for 30
>domains but it was far better then losing those users
>passwords and manually deleting them and recreating them in
>the new directory.
