I'd try this.

Move your instance of 8.05 to the new box. This is a well documented event.
Then upgrade the new instance of 8.05 to Collaboration Suite.  This would
not take a great deal of time and would offer you an opportunity to revert
back to the old still in tact server, or pause at the move state and then do
the upgrade at a later date.

I'd dry-lab this on a test box first. I just moved an 8.15 instance from
an old NT box to a new 2003 Server. It went as documented. So well in fact I
worried
for about a week that someting was wrong. Very easy.

There are notes in the move document on how to change drives and
directories.

Subject: [IMail Forum] Migrating to Collaberation Suite


I'm need to backup the domains, users, passwords, etc. from my server
running iMail 8.05 and move them to a new server which is running the
Collaberation Suite.  I can't just use the reg backup since the setup is not
exactly the same as far as drive letters, etc.  What's the best way to do
this?

Thanks,
Brian
