We have a customer that has a qmail installation and is using passwd for authentication. I would like to migrate them into our qmail installation and have their domain setup in vpopmail...about 3500 users. We have vpopmail setup (using vpasswd for users) on this particular box, but don't have any virtual domains with anywhere near that number of users. Is that too many users for a virtual domain using vpasswd or would vpopmail/mysql work better?

Looks like I can convert the passwd/shadow file on the old server to vpasswd using the vpopmail vconvert program included with vpopmail. Is there a better way?

On the old server the Maildir is located at /home/username/Maildir. Once the domain is setup via vadddomain on the new server and the vpasswd file is created with vconvert, is it just a matter of moving the user directories in the /home directory from the old server to the new vpopmail virtual domain and setting the vpopmail permissions?

Any other suggestions would be appreciated.
