 Thank you Tim  Bill.
 Why the vpopmail.vchkpw uid/gid should be the same? Can I edit the 
 /var/qmail/users/
 assign file? By the way, if I only want to transfer the accounts, can I 
 only restore
 the ~vpopmail dir?

Sure.  It's just a matter of how much work you want to do.  Just make 
sure the ids in the assign file are correct.

just tar up the ~vpopmail dir and the /var/qmail dir (or at least the
relevant control and user files)
restore on the new box

 Hello everybody,

   These days I'm configing a new mail server for our company. Our old
mail server:
 FreeBSD+Qmail+Vpopmail+Sqwebmail. The old server is not configed by me and
I don't know
 how I can transfer all the user accounts and user's datas from the olde
machine to the
 new machine. Who can give me a solution. Thank you very much.

Just make sure the vpopmail.vchkpw  uid/gid is the same on the new 
machine.  These numbers are in the /var/qmail/users/assign file.
