Migration from qmail to zimbra

[ravin]

Hi,

I have working zcs. I want to migrate existing qmail mailboxes to zimbra server. I have gone through migraiton guide of zimbra but getting stuck after giving command imapsync.

Output of the command is as below:


[root@mail]imapsync --buffersize 8192000 --nosyncacls --subscribe --syncinternaldates \
> --host1 192.168.200.6 --user1 abc@lsnet.com --password1 xyz123 \
> --host2 192.168.3.10 --user2 abc@lsnet.in --password2 xyz123

To imap server [192.168.3.10] port [143] user [abc@lsnet.in]


And the system hangs here. Mailbox size on qmail is only 6 MB.

I can't see what is happening. I have to press ctrl-c to come out.

Thanks & Regards

You might want to try specifying authentication mechanisms. I use "--authmech1 PLAIN --authmech2 PLAIN" when I migrate, for plain text auth.

Last I checked qmail is just an MTA and doesn't provide IMAP functionality itself. You should figure out what IMAP server you are using and the authentication (PLAIN,LOGIN,CRAM-MD5) and security (SSL, cleartext) options it supports. That will help you narrow down the imapsync options you need. Optionally you can run imapsync with --debugimap which may help answer some of those questions.

Hi,

I used imapsync with --authmech1 PLAIN --authmech2 PLAIN, but no luck so far. I am running qmail-imapd in old mailing system. How can I find which authentication am I using in qmail-imapd ? Also whether it is SSL or cleartext ?

Thanks

Ravin - you need to tell us what imap server you are running. Qmail-LDAP provides no IMAP4 functionality. Are you using courier-imap or dovecot or cyrus imap server?

I am using courier-imap -> zimbra and use the following imapsync command:

imapsync --debug --debugimap --sep1 INBOX. --prefix1 INBOX. --authmech1 LOGIN --host1 $imaphost --user1 $_[0] --password1 changeme --host2 $mailstore --user2 $_[0] --ssl2 --password2 changeme --authmech2 LOGIN --delete --expunge1

obviously change the variables.

Hi,

I am using courier-imap. But how can I check which authmech I am using on qmail server also ssl or cleartext ?

I checked with your syntax of imapsync but no luck.

Thanks

I don't think you understand. Qmail-ldap has nothing to do with imapsync. qmail-ldap does not have an imap server. You need to look at courier-imap's, more accurately courier-authlib to determine how the authentication is done.

Hi

Now I am getting an error saying "Host 192.168.3.10 says it has NO CAPABILITY for AUTHENTICATE LOGIN" and "NO cleartext logins disabled"

Getting above error when giving --noauthmd5 with imapsync.

I have checked "Enable clear text login" in zimbra.

I can successfully connect to qmail server.

Regards,

What host is 192.168.3.10? The courier IMAP server?
"NO cleartext logins disabled" This is a clue. cleartext logins are disabled. You cannot have --noauthmd5 if you have "NO cleartext logins disabled"
Check you courier imap config - /usr/lib/courier-imap/etc/imapd

My courier-imap server has: IMAP_CAPABILITY_ORIG="IMAP4rev1 UIDPLUS CHILDREN NAMESPACE THREAD=ORDEREDSUBJECT THREAD=REFERENCES SORT QUOTA AUTH=CRAM-MD5 AUTH=CRAM-SHA1 AUTH=CRAM-SHA256 IDLE" and as you see I use LOGIN for the courier server in imapsync

If you post the full output of the error then it will much easier to TS. After you enabled cleartext login on the zimbra server, did you restart ?

[ravin]

Hi

The host 192.168.3.10 is zimbra server. 192.168.200.6 is qmail server.
In imapsync command, it can connect to qmail server successfully, but cannot connect to zimbra server. After enabling clear text login I did restart the zimbra server. What authentication is required for imap in zimbra server. In zimbra server I can't login in imap server from Telnet. It gives error "No cleartext logins disabled"

output of imapsync:

[root@mail ~]# imapsync --buffersize 8192000 --nosyncacls --subscribe --syncinternaldates --host1 192.168.200.6 --user1 abc@lsnet.com --password1 xyz --host2 192.168.3.10 --user2 abc@lsnet.in --password2 xyz --debug --debugimap --authmech1 PLAIN
