Best way to move mail from one server to another

Thanks everyone for you help and suggestions. I think I’ll use rsync.

I had a try today, and all looked fine. I created the mail store directory with only root access on the new machine. Unfortunately that means I can’t transfer using this login (no root login over ssh). 

I’ll have to change permissions, do the transfer, the lock it down afterwards. 

Thanks again for your help.

James.
