How did you do the migration? and which addressbooks are you referring to? The surgeweb contacts are all stored as a file user.abk in the users mailstore/xfile directory (find using "tellmailHIDDEN@omain" subdir mdir/xfile). I would expect these to come over in any migration. Old webmail contact info may have been stored either in just the users webmail work directory or in the xfile directory dependent on the webmail settings. If you are using the cardav based contacts, all the information is stored in the surgemail/scripts/data/abkdb.sqlite file. I would not expect this to automatically come across in any migration. Any of these can be manually copied to the new server if you need to.

The mailboxes came across but the address books didn't - I'm hoping its due to us not copying the right directory or database file over but I cant see where they might be. Does anyone know how to bring across the address books for users individual mail boxes ? Thanks, Brian
