Default [SOLVED] Migration Help

I just installed Zimbra Network Edition. Everything seems to be running smoothly. I need to move user emails from our existing server that is hosted off-site. The existing server does not support IMAP. The only access I have to the server is FTP and management for creating email accounts/changing passwords. It is very basic.

I made a backup of everything via FTP. A user's mailbox is just one flat file with all the emails inside of it. Is there anyway to import these files into a new user account within Zimbra?

Btw, the current accounts are accessible through squirrelmail.

Any other way I can copy existing mail? It's roughly 75 accounts.

User Migration - Zimbra :: Wiki would be a good start to look at ... I guess all the emails are concatenated within the single file so you would need to split them up and then use zmlmtpinject to push them into Zimbra.

I ended up getting pop2imap working. I moved over all our existing mail using this tool. It was a little time consuming, but all is well.

Thanks for the link.
