My Windows 2003 server became faulty because of hardware problems. It serves
multiple purposes, but the most critical ones are SMTP and POP3. I'm not
running Exchange, just built-in "SMTP virtual server".

As a temp solution I'd like to configure another machine as my mail server.
What's the easiest way to move user accounts (they are in active directory),
user mailboxes and smtp/pop specific settings to another box?

xcopy in the past successfully to move mail boxes and their contents.
You must create the domains first before copy, however.

It's been a while since I did one of these so I may be over
