(this can result in duplicate messages, normally you would only do this if you had been testing and you wanted to delete the mailbox folders manually and start again!)

If you wish to test an account by logging in to it, and then you wish to delete the account and test it again you would need to issue this command so that surgemail will know it needs to retry: tellmail pstat_delete make it do all accounts again use: tellmail pstat_delete '*' to import an account, without deleting the messages from the old one, use: tellmail imap_import SECRET keep create Examine migration.log if it is not successful: tellmail imap_import oldimaphost olduser oldpass delete|keep create|nocreateĮ.g. You can also use this command line tool to import a single account or test importing an account. CRAM-MD5 is best not used as SSL offers better security. Note! migration cannot be used in conjunction with CRAM-MD5 as that prevents surgemail from storing the old password.
