a) On destination host
c) On destination host
Install QMT/CentOS 7, instructions here.
# Convert vpasswd files to mysql vpopmail db, aliases must be handled manually
toaststat (make sure all services are running)
/home/vpopmail/bin/vconvert -c -m
qmailctl cdb && qmailctl start && sleep 2s && systemctl start dovecot && toaststat


b) On source [cdb] host
2) In place conversion*
dhost=192.168.1.3 (change destination [mysql] host to suit)
ssh-keygen
ssh-copy-id $dhost
ssh $dhost (test, no password should be required)


# The first rsync migrates the bulk of the email database with vpasswd files except those queued during sync
# qmailctl stop && systemctl stop dovecot
rsync --progress -zv -are ssh /home/vpopmail/domains/ root@$dhost:/home/vpopmail/domains

# /home/vpopmail/bin/vconvert -c -m

  Will convert to many domain format if
  vpopamil was compiled with this option
