I got a chance to test this scenario when I rebuilt a new e-mail server with
the backup files.  Works like a charm, except the forwarding info for
accounts either didn't backup properly or didn't get restored properly on
all accounts.  This was in the version 6 series earlier this year.  I was
never sure if this was a bug that is listed in the KB or not.
