[imp] How to get from IMP 2.2.7 to 3.0 without loosing mail...

I have two different Apache's running on the same server (using different
ports, of course).  One is IMP 2.2.7, and the other is IMP 3.0.  I have two
different apache directories:

/usr/local/apache_imp227
/usr/local/apache_imp30

They both use the same MySQL database on the same dB server.

The mail should reside on the IMAP server (or your POP server if that is
what you use.)

I did have to move the addresses from the 2.2.7 imp address book to the
Turba address book. There is a script to do this for you.

Good luck,

Chris
