10 The databases don't really line up, but it wouldn't be hard to script
11 changes to a mysqldump from your current system to import into
12 PostfixAdmin. When I did the move I also moved to new hardware so it was
13 a bit easier to cut over without breaking everything.

15 I'd probably build a postfix_db based around PostfixAdmin, create
16 /etc/postfix-new/* files with the right stuff, and a imapd-new whatever.
17 Shut everything down and swap configs to make the new stuff active.
