Download mailenable imap migration utility

Over port 143 (and port 110 if you select POP for the passthrough authentication). I like to use the IMAP service becuause this is the way that the messages are migrated over anyway. The way to test this is to use the telnet client command on the MailEnable server and test connection to the Exchange server using the following command in a command prompt:telnet ExchangeServerIP 143You should get a response something like this:* OK Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 IMAP4rev1 server version 6.5.7638.1 (SERVER.domain.com) ready.2. Make sure when you are authenticating that you are doing so against the MailEnable server. You should setup an Outlook email client for IMAP and connect to the MailENable server. This will then, when the migration utility is enabled try and authenticate against the Exchange server and where successful create the details in MailEnable. phaines Posts: 7 Joined: Wed Feb 23, 2011 9:56 am Re: Migrating from Exchange 2000 to MailEnable Post by phaines » Fri Feb 25, 2011 10:19 am Thanks for the guidance, and your point (1) produced a successful response through telnet.MailEnable-Ben wrote:2.

It works. You configure an email client to connect to the MailEnable server this client authenticates to check their mailbox with a correct username@postoffice which on the other server will relate to the username@domain, these details are then used to connect to the remote server (Your primary server, details entered in capture utility). These details will if correct successfully connect to the old mailbox. If at this time the login fails then with the default settings in the migration utility the mailbox is not created and the authentication process fails for the client as normal. If the authentication is successful however then MailEnable will create a local mailbox, it will also create a post office, domain if required, in the case of the first mailbox of a domain. At this point the MailEnable IMAP service will connect to the primary server and pull down the messages from the old inbox folder and put them into the new MailEnable mailbox.So "capture" means capture the authentication details and use the passthrough method and "create new mailbox" means it will create a new mailbox using these attributes if successful. phaines Posts: 7 Joined: Wed Feb 23, 2011 9:56 am Re: Migrating from Exchange 2000 to MailEnable Post by phaines » Thu Feb 24, 2011 10:24 am Thanks for the response.I'm not a network admin by trade, and we don't have anyone here who's knowledgeable on this type of migration, so we're looking for fairly simple instructions and/or explanations.The situation we're in is we

The MailEnable server? (E.g. outlook). Or should it be on the exchange server? If it's the former, do I then need the client linked to the exchange server for where to save its emails to?If you can provide me with the steps needed to set this up, then I can ask one of our IT network team to help me with any details.Thanks,Paul nowhere Posts: 29 Joined: Mon Aug 09, 2010 7:34 pm Re: Migrating from Exchange 2000 to MailEnable Post by nowhere » Fri Feb 25, 2011 1:55 pm Hi,it is really easy!At the ME-Server (MailEnable) you start the Migration Capture Utility click on the Configure Button, select the Auth Protocoll (IMAP is preffered), enter the IP Adress or Hostname of your Exchange Server (Remote Host) and the Remte Port (143 if you have selected IMAP)Press OKNext select the last Option (Capture and create ...)Also set the checkbox at the Message Migration options ,...Click Save, restart the servicesNo, ME is ready to goNext step:Verify that you are able to connect to your Exchange server.
