Hello

I have a client who is hosted on a cpanel server. The problem is with the email accounts.
How can you migrate from a cpanel backup to plesk email accounts ?????
Has anyone done so ?

Plesk Migration Manager might be up to the task... http://kb.parallels.com/en/1152

Maybe a little searching would help you. http://download1.swsoft.com/Plesk/Plesk ... =14184.htm Yes, I know this is the Windows version, but it turned up real quickly when you google for your problem. Maybe reading up a bit on the service might help you?

I ve used twice in the past migration manager.
However in this case I don't have root access to the other server.

Its just a client who has a client account on another hosting company running cpanel and wants to migrate 150 mail boxes !

I am never bored googling :P

Thanks for the reply anyway :)
