and the mailboxes?
Thanks

In case the old system is unusable but the filesystem is still accessible, I would suggest copying main.cf, master.cf, and any map files, and the old queue if it is non-empty. Make sure that the destination postfix version is the same as, or not too different from, the original one.

"Imap protocol" is not a physical object, you cannot copy it; mailboxes are not under the purview of postfix but most formats are easily transferrable.
