move mails from courier to qmail (into plesk)

[desiguru]

What are the possible ways that I can move all of my emails from courier mail server to the plesk's qmail mail server?

Its really easy, you just move the files into the users mailbox. Example:

mv filename /var/qmail/mailnames/<DOMAIN>/<USER>/Maildir/cur/

Nope didnt work. The mails shows up in the header of the webmail application but they dont show up in the list.

The old domain was oldfilesdomain.tld and the new domain is filexx.tld. Is that why I cant see the mails?

Is there anyother way to transfer the mails?

make sure they are owned by popuser, otherwise its just a file. cat it and you'll see what I mean

Hey atomicturtle, Thanks for your help. So here is what I did. Old Server The mail files are located in /home/username/popaccts/domainname.tld/submission/Maildir/cur New Server /var/qmail/mailnames/domain.tdl/submission/Maildir/cur in both submission is the email address. Is there anything I am doing wrong here?
