Hi,
We bought EmailArchitect because we are migrating an old server based on IpSwitch Imail Server to new servers based on EmailArchitect.
In fact, our ISP will stop the dedicated hosted solution we use for years, and we need to migrate 
Everything is ready to make the transition this weekend.
New servers are configured with EmailArchitect (great tool, congrats), accounts are also ready.
But, obviously, we will have a lack due to DNS propagation.
So some of the emails will go to the old system, and others to the new.
In the old system, emails are stored under an .mbx format for each user.
In the new system (with your software), I saw that they are stored individually in .eml format.
Is there a way, once DNS propagation is done, to automatically transform the .mbx collected on the old system in .eml files?
Then manually put them in the new system? (I saw some .dat files, and am not sure about the integrity of the system by only putting individual .eml files in the users directory).
Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi, Thanks for using emailarchitect server.

I just sent your email address a tool named imap2imap. You can download all folders/emails from Imail and upload the folders/emails to emailarchitect server. I also confirmed that Imail supports IMAP4 protocol.
