So it would be safer to do each user, yes? On the old server Maildir contains cur, new, tmp (and courierpop3dsizelist which I'm guessing is like maildirsize on the new server) while on the new server those directories are not in a maildir. Would this work? [code] // copymailuser.sh domainuser domain.com mailuser #!/bin/sh cd /var/qmail/mailnames/$1/$2/Maildir tar -cjf 20070608_$1_$2.tar.bz2 * -R sftp otheruser@remoteserver su cd /home/$0/mail/$1/$2/ put 20070608_$1_$2.tar.bz2 bye // end copymailuser.sh //on the other server cd /home/domainuser/mail/domain.com/mailuser/ tar -xjf 20070608_domain.com_mailuser.tar.bz2 [/code] Would the su part work? I need root access to get to the directories.
