where is mail data stored other than DB
as i m transferring my files to new server i have been experiencing some problems regarding email data , i need to know where & how is it stored other than DB.

here is what person concerned with transfer had to say.

where files are stored.if its data folder.they seem to follow md5

but then md5 strings in data and db don't match

so it might be they are deriving path using ip..etc...

can any body help me on this.

Email's are stored on disk in the data/msgs directory. Parts of the email are also stored in the database for indexing purposes. Email is stored based on the md5 of the email's headers.
