Thanks,

I've already got it installed and configured, just need to migrate 
existing users from my old machine to my new one. Since I have quite a 
few domains with many many free email accounts, it just seemed like the 
easier way to manage several hundred email accounts (and more being 
added every day).

I'll look into the above vpwd2psql script as well and see if it'll help 
my migration.
