hmmm... we use imail ver5.0x
this version has a funktion called 'peering with other mailserver'. with
that, you can catch all mails on the imail-box and it will forward all
unknown mails to the peer-server (your qmail-server).
we plan to move all our mailsserver to qmail and must move somewhat about
10.000 domains with maybe 50.000 accounts.

i think, it would be better to move all accounts in one night to the
qmail-box, delete the accounts and the domains on the nt-server and set a
entry in the hosts-file on the nt-server that points to qmail.
