Mailbox Migration

[JeffITman]

My mail server has a bad spam virus and I need to wipe it clean. I was planning on taking the server down for a day this weekend and completing the task.

Can anyone offer me any help on how to move the mailboxes to an external harddrive so that we do not lose our mail? Is this even possible? I'm hoping that I do not have to build a dummy server to host the mailboxes.

I sincerely appreciate any help that is offered.

I think I figured it out... I had the "anonymous user" box unchecked while i was trying to stop the spam.. as soon as i check it again and sent myself a test email it came through immediately.
