Importing /var/mail Users

The import mailbox utility automatically imports an existing user's Inbox folder and all messages from /var/mail to the Sun Message Store. You must manually import a /var/mail user's private folders.

You can invoke the import mailbox utility by issuing the imimportmbox command at a command line interface. For information on the imimportmbox command and importing /var/mail users refer to "Migrating /var/mail Mailboxes" on page 327 and the SIMS Reference Manual.

For information on the other maintenance utilities with which import mailbox can run concurrently, refer to TABLE 7-3.
