However, that *and* the login are the only things. Can't transfer the Custumer Number to the same server accounts as each email account has a unique uidNumber. MTAs go by uidNumber first and then Login. You can have multiple Logins with the same uidNumber. However, if the uidNumber dose not match the uidNumber of the mail file (which is the coresponding login to a uidNumber) then it boguses the filename.
