I’m currently migrating from a CentOS/cPanel to a new CentOS/Plesk server. I’m currently copying/pasting my current mailboxes from Exim to my new server which runs postfix.
It seems like inbox emails show properly under my new server when I copied them over; however, all my other folders (sent, junk, draft, etc…) don’t populate with any data.
I’ve read all of the DO guides, and plenty of others, but the differences in configuration files, commands, and setups, make it very difficult to migrate settings.
