Since I was having not luck in moving the AD users mailboxes from Imail 8.22 directly to SmarterMail, I am trying to go an intermediate route with a new Imail server running 12.5 (latest version).
Currently, I have the new Imail server setup and have test imported my AD users and manually copied over the user mailboxes from my old Imail server. The part that I am stuck on is trying to get the mailbox contents to the SmarterMail server. I don't know each users password, so the manual one at a time process isn't practical and I can't get the SMConverterWizard to work. Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas on how I can get the mailbox contents imported in bulk on the SmarterMail server?

I looked in our utility library and it wasn't in there, so it may be lost. Sorry I couldn't point you to a specific tool. The MS .NET libraries are pretty easy to use to write a tool like this, though, if you have any developers handy with a little time.

If you have the names of any utilities that you have used in the past, it would be much appreciated. -----Original Message----- From: Darin Cox [mailto:dc...@4cweb.com] Sent: Wednesday, November 23, 2016 2:52 PM To: community@mailsbestfriend.com Subject: [MBF] Re: imail 8.22 to smartermail Haven't had a need for one for a while, but if you search can you find POP and forward utilities. Just run the utility on the server you are migrating to. You will pull the mail from the old server, then forwarding will look on the local server first, so no temporary aliases needed. Exact details will depend on the utility used.

Darin, can you provide me with some more specific instructions on your first suggestion below? -----Original Message----- From: Brandon Rowlett [mailto:bran...@sageisland.com] Sent: Wednesday, November 23, 2016 2:32 PM To: community@mailsbestfriend.com Subject: [MBF] Re: imail 8.22 to smartermail We used IMAPSYNC and it worked slow but great. https://imapsync.lamiral.info/ -----Original Message----- From: community@mailsbestfriend.com [mailto:community@mailsbestfriend.com] On Behalf Of Darin Cox Sent: Wednesday, November 23, 2016 2:26 PM To: community@mailsbestfriend.com Subject: [MBF] Re: imail 8.22 to smartermail Suggestion is to either 1. Use a POP and forward tool from the new server to pull the mail and forward to the account on the new server. or 2. use IMAP to sync the IMail server to a desktop/laptop, then disconnect and sync with the SmarterMail server. Hope this helps, Darin. -----Original Message----- From: Daniel Ivey Sent: Wednesday, November 23, 2016 2:22 PM To: community@mailsbestfriend.com Subject: [MBF] imail 8.22 to smartermail I am in the process of migrating from Imail 8.22 to SmarterMail. I know that Imail 8.22 is old, which is why we are moving to SmarterMail. The problem/question that I have is does anyone know of a way to move just the emails in a user's mailbox from Imail 8.22 for a group? I have 2 domains that I need to move, each referencing AD for a list of users and I need a way to just move each users emails from one server to the other all at once as there are too many to do one at a time. I have tried the SM Converter Wizard for Imail but have not had any success with it. If anyone know of a way or has any suggestions, let me know. I will try just about anything at this point as this is my last hurdle before removing my Imail servers from service.
