Well, vpopmail stores it's e-mail in maildir formats, so you could easily
copy the maildirs over.  There's also the vpasswd files for each domain,
which stores at least the encrypted password, and optionally also the
unencrypted.  When migrating to vPostMaster, you can easily enough use the
"vpmuser" shell command to script adding users.

Another way you can migrate mail is to use fetchmail to pull users current
mail over to the new server.

Thanks,
Sean
