Hi,

I looked at how imapsync works, and I don't think I can use it - the
systems will be at different physical locations and they run ssh, and the
database may be too big. But I am not familiar with that tool, so correct
me if I am wrong.

If I were to use dbmail-util, then I understand that I would drop the
tables under dbmail and then reload them on the new system, and then run
dbmail-util -by and dbmail-util -My.

I read that there was a migration script when going from 2.1 to 2.2. But
as I understand then, from 2.2 to 2.3, there is no migration script and
dbmail-util will map the data into the correct fields, correct?

Thanks again,
  Dirce
