Hello,
I need to move the folder where the emails are storaged.
What is the best solution for that?
may be not best solution
- in old server, from /var, targz "vmail" folder
- move targz file into folder where we can wget it, exp "/home/user/public_html/
- in new server, from /var folder, wget archive.tar.gz from old server
- un targz it

Hello,

I don't test it, but:
/etc/init.d/postfix stop && mv /var/vmail/ /home/vmail && ln /home/vmail /var/vmail && /etc/init.d/postfix start
Use this, as Ive tested this with Centos7
service postfix stop && mv /var/vmail/ /home/vmail && mv /var/vmail /var/vmailold && ln -s /home/vmail /var/vmail && service postfix start
you can remove the /var/vmailold at your leisure when you know all is working..
Hello,
I need your help, because all emails are locate to /var/vmail/
and / is only 50 giga. I dont have more free space here,

The ideal location would/should be /home/%user%/mail
Will also easily allow email to be included in a user's quota.
(As said a few times in the past.)

I see that for every email something is save here: /usr/local/cwpsrv/var/services/roundcube/temp
so i thing that is not a solution to move only /var/vmail
