Thanks to every body for valuable suggestions. I am working to have
actual migration in next few days.
Another question. I want to install 2 or 3 qmail servers in a load
balancing and active failover model.
Can any body help suggest the design from your experience....... thanks....

Hello,
I'm pretty sure this script is working well but this is what I've
recently done :
1° Modify MX test domain
2° Stop previous server+ copy DB
previous_server:~# /etc/init.d/apache2 stop
previous_server:~# /usr/bin/mysqldump -c -C -e -Q --add-drop-table
-uroot -p***password*** vpopmail > /backups/vpopmail.sql
previous_server:~# scp /backups/vpopmail.sql r...@new_server
previous_server:~# qmailctl stop
3° Copy config files
previous_server:~# cd /var/qmail/control
previous_server:~# scp morercpthosts rcpthosts virtualdomains
r...@new_server:/var/qmail/control
previous_server:~# cd /var/qmail/users
previous_server:~# scp assign r...@news_server:/var/qmail/users/
4° Import DB + synchronise mails
new_server:~# qmailctl stop
new_server:~# mysql -Dvpopmail -p***password*** < /root/vpopmail.sql
new_server:~# sed "s/1007:111/1007:112/g" /var/qmail/users/assign >
/var/qmail/users/assign.new
(ADADT the UID/GID to what you've found in /etc/passwd in
previous_server and new_server)
new_server:~# cat /var/qmail/users/assign.new
new_server:~# mv /var/qmail/users/assign.new /var/qmail/users/assign
new_server:~# /var/qmail/bin/qmail-newu
new_server:~# /var/qmail/bin/qmail-newmrh
new_server:~# rsync -avz --delete
r...@previous_server:/home/vpopmail/domains/ /home/vpopmail/domains/
new_server:~# #find /home/vpopmail -uid 1007 -exec chown vpopmail {} \;
(ADADT the UID to what you've found in /etc/passwd in
previous_server and new_server)
new_server:~# #find /home/vpopmail -gid 1008 -exec chgrp vchkpw {} \;
(ADADT the UID to what you've found in /etc/passwd in
previous_server and new_server)
new_server:~# mysql
use vpopmail;
update dir_control SET domain='dom_1007' WHERE domain='dom_1054';
(ADADT the UID to what you've found in /etc/passwd in
previous_server and new_server)
new_server:~# qmailctl start
Hope this help !

Here is how:

Be sure NOT to use IE. Use Firefox instead.
I have used this script many times.
