Hi,
I've recently done some extensive testing with the centos2ol.sh migration
script provided by Oracle:
https://github.com/oracle/centos2ol
The script works perfectly on both CentOS 7.x and 8.x, so I wrote a little blog
article about it:

OwnCloud, GEPI, and quite a number of mail accounts for ten diff
Hi,
One of my clients is running CentOS 7 on his workstation. He's using Mozilla
Thunderbird with an IMAP account at Infomaniak to manage his mails.
Two days ago he shot himself in the foot by playing around with Thunderbird's
