Is there a process of how to migrate accounts from CentOs Web Panel to Virualmin?
Hello @josephgodwinke and welcome to the community.
The process I use to migrate CWP accounts to Virtualmin involves rsync of files from the CWP server to the Virtualmin server, a SQL dump on CWP and an import on the Virtualmin server and then an imapsync to copy over the contents of the mailboxes from CWP to Virtualmin.
If there is a way to import into Virtualmin the backups created by CWP then I have never used it and am not aware of its existence.
I hope this answers your question. Feel free to continue this thread if you have more questions about migration to Virtualmin.

I basically did the same thing when I migrated our servers to Virtualmin.
impasync tutorial available here?
It can be as simple as this:
imapsync --host1 cwpIPaddress -user1 user@domain.tld --password1 oldpassword --ssl1 --host2 virtualminIPaddress --user2 user@domain.tld --password2 newpassword --ssl2
Already trying this but I have gotten errors in some mail accounts. Can I do this manually?
Errors in some mail accounts: please elaborate.
duplicates i think - UID inserted in the middle of mailbox
Have you seen this?
Am a practical guy can I do this manually like just cp compressed mail folder over to account_dir/homes/single_email_address_account
Yup, if that works better for you than imapsync.
We had beter start a new topic for imapsync if you wish to discuss it further, this one is about migration from CWP.
BTW, I love IMAPSync. It’s my ‘go to’ tool for most mail migration tasks.
