Email Server LANMailServer

In the LANMailServer settings, you can find the data folder, which is usually located at c:\ProgramData\LANMailServer. All data in this folder must be transferred to the new computer. This data contains the entire configuration.

Performing migration

• Log in as an administrator on both the old and the new computer.
• First, stop the LANMailServer Service
• Copy all data from the data folder to the new computer, or transfer it via an external hard drive/NAS drive/cloud drive/network drive and then onto the new computer.
• Uninstall LANMailServer on the old computer (Control Panel - Programs and Features - Uninstall LANMailServer).
• Install LANMailServer on the new computer.

After installation, LANMailServer will start and access the existing data. Start the LANMailServer Console and re-enter the license, as this is necessary to access all users.

Starting and Stopping the Service

Via Control Panel - Administration - Services, you can stop and restart the LANMailServer Service.

Using the Command Prompt...

Open the Command Prompt with administrator rights and enter:

net stop LMService

To start the service:
