Hi Guys

Actually i dont know in my sendmail where the mail for user is going.Actually i need to move all users mails from old mail server on which sendmail is running to new machine on which postfix is running.
In the postfix machine i created all users with home folders containing Maildir directory and all incoming mail going to cur,new,tmp directories accordingly.
So can some body tell me how to do that,i will be very thankfull

Regard
Talat

sendmail will most likely just use /var/spool/mail/username as a single mbox file. so if you want to move emails from an mbox file into a Maildir heirarchy, how about a tool called mbox2maildir? http://www.qmail.org/mbox2maildir
