Using MSimportexport.exe you can migrate individual domains to another MailSte server. This is in MailSite 8 and later

The syntax for msImportExport.exe is as follows:

 -[im|ex]port filename
 -delete
 -server [-property old1[:new1][,old2[:new2]]..]
 -domains [-property old1[:new1][,old2[:new2]]..]
 -domain domainname [-property old1[:new1][,old2[:new2]]..]
 -mailboxes [-plugin old1[:new1][,old2[:new2]]..] 
 -mailbox mailboxname [-plugin old1[:new1][,old2[:new2]]..]
 -maillists [-plugin old1[:new1][,old2[:new2]]..] 

Mailbox plugin types:

Number	Mailbox type	Comment
0	Registry	Mailbox information stored in Registry
1	NT User	Mailbox information stored in Registry and in NT user database
2	Database	Stores mailbox name, domain and password in ODBC/ SQL database
4	SQL	Stores all mailbox information in ODBC/ SQL database

To migrate a domain from the old server to the new server, follow the instructions below: -Export the current domain from MailSite * please refer to the plugin types at the begining of this document for conversion options, for eaxmple if you are converting from registry (type 0) to SQL (type 4), then the syntax is :

-plugin 0:4

If you are converting to SQL, or databse type boxes, be sure that you have the database connectivity operational, otherwise it will fail.
