Many of our customers are migrating from Microsoft Exchange to Atmail for the added stability, performance and reliability using Atmail under Linux. To make the migration process simplier for clients, we have created a new migration script.

A full tutorial is available at:

http://www.atmail.com/support/index.php/Atmail6/ExchangeUserMigrationGuide

Data migrated includes

• User folders
• Email messages ( All folders )
• Calendar data, exported from Outlook Vcalendar format to CalDAV ( We love open protocol calendaring, not a proprietary system like Exchange )
• User addressbooks ( Via the Atmail Websync utility )

Our mission with Atmail is to become the leading Linux messaging solution and exchange alternative - With the new migration script, switching from Windows Exchange to Atmail is made one step easier.

If you are an existing OSX server administrator, you can use Atmail Webmail as a replacement for the bundled Squirrelmail and offer your mail users an enhanced Webmail platform, full integration with the existing CalDAV server, and use Atmail’s stunning Web UI.
