• The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Moving Mailenable from non-Plesk to Plesk environment

tsp1965

New Pleskian
Hi

I have MailEnable 7.09 Pro installed on a Win Web 2008 box working fine, but this server is soon to be turned off. The new box is WWeb 2008 R2 and uses Plesk. I hadn't appreciated when I agreed to have Plesk that it wants to do everything for me (e.g. will only recognise ME mailboxes it set up) and that it will be very unhappy if I do things manually!

Plesk seems to want me to create and configure all mailboxes within it, which is a complete ball ache. Not least because it means doing everything one mailbox at a time, and forcing all my users to empty out their old boxes and potentially lose mail whilst I am doing this process.

So is there any way of backing up the whole old ME server configuration, settings, mailboxes and all, and copying it over? I know I can do that without Plesk in the way, but will it work with Plesk there? (the path for the ME install is different, for a start, as Plesk wants it put within its folder branch).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
