Migrating Emails to Zimbra

[dbo]

Doing a demo right now with the OpenSource GA version of Zimbra. If all goes well we may purchase the Network Edition for a client. Part of this would entail converting all of their existing mailboxes over to Zimbra. What sort of utilities are there to do this migration to Zimbra without losing the data?

It depends what you're converting from, some details of conversion are covered here.

Thanks for the tip. We're not exactly sure what the environment looks like. It's a custom built email server running on a Linux box. It's starting to get out of control and they don't have any of the group collaboration that they need. From what I've seen so far I'll likely be pushing hard for Zimbra!

If their current server has IMAP access then I'd suggest using imapsync to migrate the email.
