<p dir="auto">I didn’t see the OP mention what they use on the server but whatever it is, one would think similar tools to <code style="margin: 0 0; padding: 0 0.25em; border-radius: 3px; background-color: #F7F7F7;">doveadm</code> would be available…</p>

To save money, I’m considering transferring my domains, mail, and websites from X to a dedicated server managed by company Y.</p>
<p dir="auto">Will all the many, *many* IMAP mailboxes that MailMate has created for me disappear in the move, or will they (if the move goes well) wind up on the new server with their contents intact?</p>
