|
|
I've got a server running courier-imap that I need to reinstall, can anyone tell me how I can copy my mail off it?
I need to be able to backup to a file / files so that I can backup to tape.
Thanks. _________________ --

By default, on Gentoo, each users mail is stored under /home/$USER/.maildir - so just back up the home dirs
As to virtual users - I have no idea. |
