Resolved Error moving mailboxes from Cpanel

Denis Gomes Franco

Regular Pleskian
I just noticed something with a customer. Looks like Plesk does not migrate mailboxes from Cpanel that are using the MDBOX format. Plesk migrated passwords and mailboxes itself, but no messages at all.

Luckily I have a backup made just before deleting the account, but I really trusted that Plesk did the migration correctly. I understand Plesk does not implement the MDBOX format but anyway there were *no* warnings about this in the migration log.
 
Solved this by converting the mailboxes back to the old format in Cpanel before migration. Still, would be nice if Plesk implemented the MDBOX format, as it is more efficient for large mailboxes.
