Thanks Guys. I worked out what I was doing wrong and it was pretty stupid:

I ftp'd the backup tar file from the old computer to the new one prior to running the restore script. Unfortunately I hadn't waited long enough for the tar ball to be assembled...

I repeated the restore with a new backup and all is now fine.

I have a nice new toaster running in Centos 5.

Kind regards,

Mark.

Mark,

I previously had a duplicate delivery issue with a single user's account and
it turned out that the user's username/Maildir/.qmail file had been
corrupted. I restored the file and the problem went away.

Regards,
Tim

I've just re-built my toaster on Centos 5 and restored data from a
backup of my old toaster. All appears well: Two virtual domains are
restored, user accounts, passwords and emails but one of the accounts
is receiving two copies of all test mails. If I send to it from
another account it still receives two copies. Other accounts appear to be
ok.

If I send email from this account only one one email is received at th
eother account(unless I send to the the affected account).

I'd be grateful for any suggestions.

Many thanks in advance,

2 copies of messages are usually a result of the message being in the
SMTP-processing-process (if that makes sense) too long. What I usually see
is when spamassassin, clam, or some other process (like reverse DNS
checking) takes too long. Since you migrated to Cent5, I have to ask what
your CPU and memory situations are. Cent5 is very memory hungry,
especially when compared to Cent4.x. I have a suspicion that when
performing some checks that it's swapping to disk, which induce too long of a latency in the process and cause the SMTP daemon to think the message "got
lost" somewhere and try and deliver it again.
