A script to migrate from PostfixAdmin to Modoboa. It has been tested against versions 2.3.3 and upper.

Install this extension system-wide or inside a virtual environment by running the following command:

$ pip install modoboa-pfxadmin-migrate 

Edit the settings.py file of your modoboa instance and add modoboa_pfxadmin_migrate inside the MODOBOA_APPS variable like this:

MODOBOA_APPS = ( # End of list 'modoboa_pfxadmin_migrate', ) 

Then, add a new database connection named pfxadmin into the DATABASES variable corresponding to your PostfixAdmin setup:

DATABASES = { "default" : { # default connection definition }, "pfxadmin" : { "ENGINE" : "<engine>", "NAME" : "<database name>", "USER" : "<database user>", "PASSWORD" : "<user password>", } } 

This connection should correspond to the one defined in PostfixAdmin's configuration file.

You are now ready to start the migration so run the following commands:

$ cd <modoboa_instance_dir> $ python manage.py migrate_from_postfixadmin -s <password scheme> 

<password scheme> must be replaced by the scheme used within postfixadmin (crypt most of the time).

Depending on how many domains/mailboxes your existing setup contains, the migration can be long. Just wait for the script's ending.

The procedure is over, edit the settings.py file and:

• remove the pfxadmin database connection from the DATABASES variable
• remove 'modoboa_pfxadmin_migrate' from the MODOBOA_APPS variable

You should be able to connect to Modoboa using the same credentials you were using to connect to PostfixAdmin.
