And yes I think you should follow in this direction and move them to the new machine into .usr/local/virtual, that is a very good possiblility. </p> <p>When your done change the routing and presto new server is live. </p> http://diymacserver.com/forum/topic/dyndns-environmentmigrating-mail-from-uw-to-courier#post-587 Sun, 16 Nov 2008 02:31:41 +0000 bostonmacosx 587@http://diymacserver.com/forum/ <p>I would need more specific info on the transfer of mail from one server to another.<br /> I want to keep my DYNDNS address...however since I'm behind the router with both machines I can't use two real DNS names. It will only port forward with on DNS address.</p> <p>Pondering...is there a way to just transfer the mailboxes locally on one machine from MBOX(UW) to Maildir(Courier)</p> <p>can I just do this to the local machine and then just mvove the messages to the new machine and put them in the proper /usr/local/virtual.....</p> <p>Thanks<br /> Rboert </p> http://diymacserver.com/forum/topic/dyndns-environmentmigrating-mail-from-uw-to-courier#post-584 Sat, 15 Nov 2008 20:19:44 +0000 Richard 584@http://diymacserver.com/forum/ <p>Robert,</p> <p>Switching servers is easy, just change the routing in your router and have it point to the new machine with courier. Moving the data is another thing. Configuration you can setup before moving read the documentation on the imap stuff (we don't do the whole courier stack, sorry). Then you need to move the mailboxes with email, make sure they are in the correct format.</p> <p>Please contact me directly if you need more info.</p> <p>Looking forward to the php stuff.</p> <p>Richard </p> http://diymacserver.com/forum/topic/dyndns-environmentmigrating-mail-from-uw-to-courier#post-582 Sat, 15 Nov 2008 02:00:53 +0000 bostonmacosx 582@http://diymacserver.com/forum/ <p>I current run 6 years+ a UW IMAP server with self SSL cert. </p> <p>I want to move thing over to courier. </p> <p>my dyndns address is lets say server1.dyndns.org</p> <p>I have both computer in my house behind a DLink router. </p> <p>So how can I transfer the files from one server to another if I want to maintain the same DNS name. Is there a way to transfer the name of the virtual domain to something else on the courier/postfix setup?</p> <p>Also what tools are available just to migrate this over and any tutorials would be apprecitated. </p> <p>Thanks for all the tutorials on here. I will be contributing a more robust PHP in the near future for people to use. </p> <p>Thanks<br /> Robert </p> http://diymacserver.com/forum/topic/user-lost-emails-how-to-rebuild-courierimap-database#post-548 Sat, 06 Sep 2008 10:19:53 +0000 Richard 548@http://diymacserver.com/forum/ <p>James you could try to remove the file courierimapuidb which is a flat file db of all the mails. It will be rebuild automatically after a re-login of the user. Please let me know if this works for you/him. I've tried this is on my test system succesfully but didn't loose any mail beforehand. </p> http://diymacserver.com/forum/topic/user-lost-emails-how-to-rebuild-courierimap-database#post-543 Tue, 26 Aug 2008 02:07:06 +0000 jlbrown 543@http://diymacserver.com/forum/ <p>I have a use who claims that they lost all the mail in their Inbox when their laptop went to sleep.

The cause of this is that not every mail client implemented the SSL3 protocol as it should be. I will update the documentation to reflect this change. Sorry I forgot to do it earlier, my apologies! </p> http://diymacserver.com/forum/topic/imap-ssl-connection-refused#post-438 Sun, 13 Jan 2008 11:51:22 +0000 john 438@http://diymacserver.com/forum/ <p>hey richard - </p> <p>Thanks for the reply. I changed my /Library/StartupItems/CourierIMAP/CourierIMAP to use imapd-ssl.rc and I was able to connect. Thanks! However, then I started getting an ssl error that, in the mail log file, looked like:</p> <p>imapd-ssl[427]: couriertls: connect: error:1408F10B:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_RECORD:wrong version number</p> <p>Google told me to change the line in /usr/local/etc/imapd-ssl from what you had:</p> <p>TLS_PROTOCOL=SSL3</p> <p>to </p> <p>TLS_PROTOCOL=SSL2</p> <p>and it is now working. So now my question is, is this a big deal? Should i try to get it working with ssl3, or is ssl2 "secure enough"? Thanks for your help.</p> <p>john </p> http://diymacserver.com/forum/topic/imap-ssl-connection-refused#post-437 Sun, 13 Jan 2008 10:46:42 +0000 Richard 437@http://diymacserver.com/forum/ <p>Did you start up the imap server with the ssl script, so that is <code>/usr/local/libexec/imapd-ssl.rc</code> instead of the normal <code>/usr/local/libexec/imapd.rc</code>.</p> <p>Otherwise it could be a firewall blocking access ? </p> http://diymacserver.com/forum/topic/imap-ssl-connection-refused#post-436 Sun, 13 Jan 2008 07:21:46 +0000 john 436@http://diymacserver.com/forum/ <p>hi all - </p> <p>i set up the postfix ssl and imap ssl accourding to the article in the docs, and the postfix is working great, but i'm getting a connection refused if i try to connect to the server on port 993. is there a startup script or something that i need to add to get imap-ssl working? </p> <p>thanks for this great guide!</p> <p>john </p> http://diymacserver.com/forum/topic/courier-authlib-0602-error-in-maillog-symbol-not-found-_auth_mysql#post-426 Thu, 29 Nov 2007 22:15:35 +0000 nerdcoder 426@http://diymacserver.com/forum/ <p>Hi Richard!</p> <p>Thank you so much for your comment!<br /> First I tried and it didn't work...
