Hi all,

How do I move/migrate user mail when I upgrade to a new box?

I've got about 30 user mail boxes on an old Linux box. New box is 
FBSD 4.5. The transition needs to be quick -- turn off old box, 
reboot new box with duplicated settings. Any new mail should get 
delivered on the new box. How do I get the "leftover" mail off the 
old, and onto the new?

~Todd
