Hi All,
I would like to migrate our messaging system from Postfix to Exchange 2003. Can someone tell me how I can migrate mailboxes from Postfix to Exchange 2003 without having to download manually all mailboxes from Postfix locally to pst files, please ???
Thanks for your help ...
 
What's wrong with doing that? Exchange will import those .pst files quite easily (and quickly).

The thing is that I have 300 mailboxes and I would like to avoid to download manually 300 times + config of POP/SMTP profiles ...
 
You don't have a lot of choice coming from Postfix.
Once you get the PST's, you can use ExMerge to import them all at once, that is not so hard to do.

Yea, no Postfix migration wizards that I am aware of. As mentioned above use ExMerge to import into Exchange. You could provide your users with instructions to do the dumps for you. With 300 of them at least 50 are bound to get it right, reducing your work a little. ;-)

I hope you find this post helpful.

Regards,

Mark
