Actually you don't have to use Regedit to do this, IMail Administrator can
and should be used. Just change the 'Top Directory' for that domain. Also
need to copy the current top dir to the new location. To do that, stop all
IMail services when copying to new location, change the Top Dir, and start
the services. Test by sending email to one account and observe the date/time
on main.mbx for that account is new time. If it is, all is well!
