Migrating an Archive Server (ASM) archive to MailStore
If you've used Achab's Archive Server (ASM) software in the past and upgraded to MailStore, it's highly likely you'll be wanting to bring across that historic archived data to the new platform. There are two ways you can go about importing an external ASM archive to MailStore - either directly as files, or, via your MDaemon email server.
One of the limitations of importing directly into MailStore is that mail can't be sorted on a per-user basis and instead the archive will have to reside under a single MailStore user account which you delegate access to via MailStore's permissions system. It's for this reason that we tend to recommend the second option and utilise the MDaemon server as an intermediary for MailStore to collect the old archive data from.

Neil and I recently returned from sunny Chatham where we were kindly invited to come along and talk to attendees of the Kent SBS user group about MDaemon Messaging Server.
This is one of a number of regional groups across the UK which include Manchester, Reading Birmingham, Edinburgh and Glasgow. Each consists of like-minded IT support companies and managed service providers wanting to keep their "toe-in" with market and product developments, discuss some of the challenges they face in the field, and perhaps most importantly, help keep the local Dominos in business.
