Batch creation of accounts, How to create accounts from a file
 
My ISP is closing down, and I am having to migrate my domain to a new ISP (that is not the one they proposed). That means migrating 55 mailboxes. I really don't want to have to enter much the same data 55 times over into 4 dialogue boxes. All that is really going to change is the IMAP server name and port, and the SMTP server name and port. I need to have both the old accounts and the new accounts defined to the mail client for a changeover period. While the new DNS entry for the domain is being propagated, there will be at least a couple of hours during which mail could go either to the old server or to the new server. I'm fairly sure that the data for this is in the file Account.cfn for each account. I am even more sure that I don't want to fiddle with those files directly.

Is there an import facility?
 
New accounts can be created and configured from the command line, which can help you avoid all the clicking. See here: https://www.ritlabs.com/en/support/help/77/

I'm not sure there is a way to say "create a new account which is a copy of this one", though.
