RESOLUTION
This guide will take you through the steps to migrate your Atmail 7 Server + WebMail Software to another server.
On the old server
Dump the MySQL database
mysqldump -u root -p [atmail-database-name] > /usr/local/atmail/atmail7-dump.sql
On the new server
Copy the entire /usr/local/atmail/ folder to the new server.
rsync -e ssh -avr [email protected][old-server-ip-address]:/usr/local/atmail/ /usr/local/atmail/
On the new server
Import the Atmail database.
Log into MySQL and create new database to insert the dump into.
mysql -u root -p mysql> create database atmail7;
Log out of MySQL and import the dump.
