Importing Maildirs

matt_t1

New Pleskian
Hi,

I have an existing home-grown mail hosting environment I need to migrate to Plesk. As far as I can see mail is stored in Maildir format in /var/qmail/mailnames/... - my existing environment also uses Maildir, so is there any reason I can't just import the existing maildirs and change ownership?

I'm a bit concerned about the maildirsize file that appears in Plesk-created maildirs, but doesn't exist in my existing ones.

Thanks
