We are moving our GW 8 from Netware to another server with Suse and it  
is going to take 3-4 days (we did a test during a weekend). We were  
wondering if making everyone archive emails will help the move to be  
faster. Anyone has an idea?

Thanks! 🙂

So my response to lanaleon’s comment is…

You might want to post this in an actual Groupwise support forum, say  
like:

novell.support.groupwise.8x.clients (or agents, install, etc). You’ll  
get a better chance of an actual answer than you will in this forum, as  
this is a ‘non-Novell support’ forum, more for general chatting, etc.

answer ;).

I miss the Thwacks, but am too afraid to test it’s power 🙂 I was just  
think of the days “person x, your post has been deleted…”
