On destination host
Install Rocky 8 or 9
qmailctl stop && systemctl stop dovecot
On source host Source host most likely EL7
# dhost=192.168.1.3 Change IP address for your needs
# ssh-keygen
# ssh-copy-id $dhost
# ssh $dhost
The first rsync migrates the bulk of the email database except those queued during sync # rsync --progress -zv -are ssh /home/vpopmail/domains/ root@$dhost:/home/vpopmail/domains # qmailctl stop && systemctl stop dovecot # mysqldump -u root -p vpopmail > vpopmail.sql # scp vpopmail.sql root@$dhost:/root
The second rsync, services stopped, migrates the balance of the email database and control files # rsync --progress -zv -are ssh /home/vpopmail/domains/ root@$dhost:/home/vpopmail/domains # rsync --progress -zv -are ssh /var/qmail/control/ root@$dhost:/var/qmail/control # rsync --progress -zv -are ssh /var/qmail/users/ root@$dhost:/var/qmail/users # rsync --progress -zv -are ssh /etc/tcprules.d/ root@$dhost:/etc/tcprules.d # rsync --progress -zv -are ssh /etc/dovecot/toaster.conf root@$dhost:/etc/dovecot # rsync --progress -zv -are ssh /etc/dovecot/local.conf root@$dhost:/etc/dovecot
Not necessary to the migration # rsync --progress -zv -are ssh /usr/share/toaster/include/admin.pass root@$dhost:/usr/share/toaster/include # rsync --progress -zv -are ssh /usr/share/toaster/include/admin.htpasswd root@$dhost:/usr/share/toaster/include # rsync --progress -zv -are ssh /usr/share/squirrelmail/plugins/ root@$dhost:/usr/share/squirrelmail/plugins # rsync --progress -zv -are ssh /etc/spamassassin/.spamassassin/ root@$dhost:/etc/spamassassin/.spamassassin # rsync --progress -zv -are ssh /etc/spamassassin/local.cf root@$dhost:/etc/spamassassin # rsync --progress -zv -are ssh /var/lib/squirrelmail/prefs/ root@$dhost:/var/lib/squirrelmail/prefs
On destination host # mysql -u root -p vpopmail < vpopmail.sql # qmailctl cdb && qmailctl start && sleep 2s && systemctl start dovecot && toaststat
