@Mail now supports migrations from the SurgeMail Webmail platform. The migration script can import previous Address-book data, Distribution lists, and Tasks from the flat-file database used by Surgemail.

The migration is seamless and all existing user data is available once logged into @Mail.

To use the migration script download a copy at:

http://atmail.com/attach/migrate-surgemail.tgz

This is provided in @Mail versions 5.08+ and greater by default.

Extract the migration scripts under:

/path/to/atmail/modules/

To execute:

cd /path/to/atmail/modules/
php migrate-surgemail.php /path/to/surgemail.csv

Where surgemail.csv is a list of users and the data directory location of user data.

The format of the CSV the file is:

user@domain.com,/path/to/surgemail/user/

To find the database location of a user under Surgemail you can use the inbuilt function to extract the database location:

cd /path/to/surgemail/
./webmail.cgi -show_path user@domain

Which will return a path similar to:

/var/spool/webmail/workarea/n_y2/a1/user_Pdomain_Icom_Plocalhost/

Use this utility to compile a CSV file for importing into @Mail

Once the script is run it will return each record migrated, for example:

# php migrate-surgemail.php /tmp/test.users
