Repository migration question.

Hi,

Is there a way to migrate a repository from "file" to "dbfile" if one 
decides later to change the config strategy? (I mean of course an 
automatic or "semi" automatic way?)

Thanks in advance,

Ahmed.

Thank you for the "reinject" idea :).

 From what you are saying too, the mailet API seems very powerful.

Thanks,

Ahmed.

There are no utilities to do this.  I think Noel used a mailet that 
would pull from one repository and reinject it into the spool, and I 
guess you could accomplish a repository migration this way, but I'm not 
familiar with the mailet or exactly how you'd do that.
