I've done this a couple of times. If you are using the NT registry for Imail it's simple. Just export HKLM / Software / Ipswitch (can't remember if it's Ipswitch or Imail, but whichever) registry branch to a floppy disk. When the W2K box is up and running do a new install of Imail then import the registry branch.
You need to transfer the spool and user directories of course, but other than that it work great. -Joe ----- Original Message ----- From: "cab" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, February 16, 2002 3:44 AM Subject: [IMail Forum] NT4 to Windows 200 server > I have searched the Ipswitch knowledgebase for the anser to this question - > but not found the answer. > We are currently running iMailv5 on an NT4 BDC on an NT4 domain. > I am planning to upgrade to v7.4 on a new server.
