Yeah I got that, the KB is the first place I checked. It's a shame there
isn't one for Post.Office.

The Article you linked to says exactly what I put in the original message:
"Since Post.Office will only export userids you will have to put the
passwords."

Not really feasible on thousands of undocumented addresses. I have seen
evidence and heard legends that a password cracker exists, but it seems to
be a figment of the internets collective imagination.

I was just thrown a wonderful little project, I'm supposed to move 3 or 4
thousand Post.Office users over to our own Imail server. The only sparse
documentation I can find lists a command line utility for Post.Office that
exports users, but not their passwords. The mailbox format looks atrocious,
and I can't even get halfway decent access to the server!

If anyone has messed with Post.Office and knows of any way to extract users
passwords, I would greatly appreciate your help. I suppose I can script the
changing over of mailbox formats, but this isn't going to be pretty!
