Hi.. We have rebuilt a mailserver (freebsd) with qmail. The previous server was running sendmail. Is there any way to import user information to qmail with having to manually recreate the users? Im hopeing theres a way to do it with something like comma separated text or similar.

Any help is greatly appreciated....


Cheers

If your sendmail is storing data in "mbox" format, then you can use commonly available mbox2maildir conversion utilities.

All you need to do is tell qmail about the new users and then convert their mboxes into their maildirs.
