Migrating from Power-MiaB to MiaB

Help with Unusual Circumstances
1

Power-MiaB added some features to MiaB, but the project has since been abandoned. However, if, like me, you have some servers running P-MiaB, migrating them the the latest MiaB (with up to date NextCloud for instance) seemed daunting.

If seems though that the bulk, if not all the changes made in P-MiaB are in the UI, so I tested a simple rsync like [Can an actual upgrade be done instead of a re-install? - #7 by fmonts](https://described here) to copy /home/user-data to a new installation of MiaB and it seems to work fine.

Has anyone done this and are there any problems detected that are not showing up in the UI?

I never ran Power-MIAB ā€“ but Iā€™m guessing if you move your /home/user-data/ to a new box and then run the setup script you should probably have a working mail instance

(update DNS or whatever you have to do)

There are more reports of succesfull migration Moving back from Power Mail-in-a-Box to the official version
