I want to transfer my emails from other hosting to vrtualmin email
How should i do? I download my all emails in Maildir format but where to add or unzip this files that show my data? I found Maildir folder in usermin but I don’t know what should do next?
I logged in as each email user and set Fetchmail to pull the mail off the old server as I switched each user over. Time consuming, but it worked well for me.
I haven’t run this before, where should I get the --source I downloaded all the mail in maildir format or each Inbox, send and draft files all are in zip file which is on my system
For Ubuntu.
sudo apt-get -y install fetchmail
The same details that you would enter into an email client program to access the email on the old server.
Server Name = oldserver.com, POP3 or IMAP, port number etc.
You did’nt get what i’m saying i don’t wana fetch the email i want to transfer all the emails to here in virtualmin
I just explained what worked for me.
Have fun.
Randomz did get what you’re saying, and told you how to do it. 
Fetchmail is a perfectly reasonable way to fetch mail from another server and deliver it to a local user, which is the problem you are trying to solve. There are other ways to solve it, but that is certainly one of them and a pretty good one.
Got it, Let me check and try again
