Thanks, Bill.
Yes, I've used imapsync to import mailboxes from one imap server to another.
Although Zimbra is not built to be like web front-end like Squirrelmail, can we use this fetchmail script to import mails from other imap servers into Zimbra server whenever an user logs on to Zimbra? In this way, Zimbra is like a front-end although the mails will be imported into its database. Will it take a long time?
Zimbra is fantastic but seems kind of slow, and requires a more powerful server than the one we have now. That's why I'm thinking of Zimbra as a 'front-end' (even if it is via fetchmail) for my sendmail/imap-uw mail server, until I have a more powerful server.

You can't use zimbra as a front-end to other mail servers as it's meant to be a complete mail/groupware solution and runs it's own postfix instance.
What you can do is migrate all your mail using something like imapsync, have a search of the forums and see how it's been done by others. |
