Hi.
I currently have postfix on an old machine running debian lenny. Due to
performance issues I plan to move the mail server to a newer more
powerful system.
I am considering various options but I think I will still use debian
testing since it has never let me down in several years.
I now have two question for the list:
* Postfix stores the mail in Maildir format in /home/vmail and the
users/domains/forwards tables are in a sql db.
Other than setting up on the new system the same stuff I am currently
using (mysql, amavis, sa, ...), will it work if I just copy over the
entire 'vmail' directory and the current configuration? Is there
anything else I need to move to the new server?
* The current box has not been apt-get update'd in months and I plan to
keep it this way until I move the mailserver features to the new system.
The postfix currently running is 2.4.5-3 (as reported by aptitude).
When I setup the new server it will probably install the postfix that is
in the lenny repository atm, 2.5.1-1 .
My question is: to have the smoothest migration possible, should I
upgrade postfix on the old mailserver and THEN copy the confs+maildirs
to the new system or can I just do the copy process without bothering
about the different releases?
Thanks.
Andrea
