Default migration from zcs 5.0.18 to 7.1.3

I have to migrate from zcs 5.0.18 to zcs 7.1.3 all accounts, all aliases and mailing list for only 1 domain.
For accounts and mail I can use zcs 7.1.3 web interface migration tool, but without passwords ... how can also migrate the same passwords?

for the aliases I can use the script in the wiki Aliases file Migration - Zimbra :: Wiki ( i hope it works!)

What can I use to migrate the mailing list?

regards and happy new year.

Use the Certified procedure in the wiki for moving your Zimbra server to new hardware (if that's what you're doing?).

That wasn't what I suggested, go to the wiki and read the Zimbra Certified document on moving your ZCS to a new server and follow those instructions.

Then you either upgrade your ZCS server to the most recent release and move it to new hardware or move it to new hardware then upgrade. You're not actually giving us much information about what, exactly, you're doing this for: is it to move from 32bit to 64bit; change operating systems; just a hardware upgrade or what? This topic has been covered many times in the forums.

I apologize for not being clear.
my online installation is zcs 5.0.18 on Centos 4.7 32 bit, I have to migrate on new server with zcs 7.1.3 on centos 5.7 64 bit.
To upgrade the OS and zcs on existing working installation to lastes OS and zcs is dangerous. I can't stop the services for too much time.
I thought the best way is to use tools for migration without change old installation for precaution.
On the new server can not install a 64 bit ZCS 5.0.18 (and make upgrades later), also in the old installation there are little problems that I would not bring on new installation (with statistics etc. etc.)
The migrating tool on 7.1.3 is working fine , but only for accounts without password.
There is a tool for alias but not for mailing list.
If we solve the problem for passwords and mailing lists, we found the fastest and most secure way.

regards

... the distribution lists is not a really problem, I can make script for recreate the mailing list, the real problem is to migrate the passwords.

Unfortunately the migrated passwords do not match with the source passwords, maybe it's completely different encryption algorithm from zcs 5.0.18 to 7.1.3
