Is there a definitive way to tell what version the old server is? Thank you.

If you look in the restore script you'll see there's some commands commented out. These were needed when I went from an old version to a newer one. The error you said you got about not being able to read a user's dir sounds like permission problems. Check to make sure 89:89 is free in your /etc/passwd, since vpopmail will want to use those UID/GIDs. If your older version did NOT user 89:89, you'll see the qmail-newu command in the resore script (commented out) as this will be needed to change the UID for vpopmail. This is mostly guessing though, without seeing the exact errors/logs. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------- Managed Qmailtoaster servers are now available Visit http://qmailtoaster.com/QMTManaged.html to order yours today!
