The imported mail boxes need fred.unixuser as the login name.
Is this configurable anywhere? I’ve tried looking in the server templates but have only found the format for usernames.
I did a quick grep through /etc and noticed that the login name is in quite a few files including one binary one so it’s not going to be easy fixing it up after the import.
Any thoughts welcomed otherwise I’ll have to get my clients to change their pop3 logins which I would rather not do.
I’m working on a solution to this. You’re not the only one with this concern, and I suspect there’s some easy way to resolve it without having to retrain users.
Hopefully, we’ll have something to address this sometime this weekend.
Is there any update on this? I’ve tried looking through the forums etc but haven’t really found anything. I’m kind of stuck renting two servers at the moment as I haven’t finished my migration and it would be more cost effective for me to just have the one
Happy new year (if you get time to realise you are in the next one).
Did you ever figure this out? I have a bunch of mail accounts I migrated over from cPanel, and they are all broken.
I know the user can fix their email client by mailuser.linuxuser instead of mailuser@domain.com, but that is a huge headache for all the users. Where can I change that globally?
After converting to Virtualmin, every email user would need to change their email clients username to person1.abc and person2.abc. Which is also very "strange" naming convention.
Is there a way to change this importation process? I haven’t even found a way to manually change the login id back to the original in virtualmin.
I had found that too. And setting up users with user@domain.com option made them all work.
Great script!
It even brought my mailman lists over.
Although I did have to do two things to get mailman to work.
