[Dovecot] Migration Question

[Peter Fraser]

Hi all
I got a shiny new server and I want to install the latest and greatest of
everything on it. The old server has dovecot-1.2.17 working
with postfix-2.8.4,1, dovecot quotas, sieve etc.
My question is: Would it work of I installed dovecot 2 on this server along
with everything I want and just copy the /home/virtualmail directory where
all the user mail directories are? I use the Maildir format by the way.
