Hello,
The server I installed webmail pro on died due to a hardware failure. I am trying to pull off all of the webmail data and going to copy it on a new installed server. My question is what do I need to backup? I have copied /var/www/html/webmail but I am assuming their must be some sql files etc?
Thanks

I have found the files I am looking for under /var/lib/mysql
Hopefully this is all the files I will need?

I wouldn't recommend copying MySQL data as files. Instead, use any MySQL management software like PhpMyAdmin or whatever else is available in your system and run Dump/Export routine there. If you're not sure about database access credentials, you should be able to find those in data/settings/settings.xml file.

In case if it's not possible to access the MySQL server in regular way, we recommend to check MySQL support resources on this. Depending on product version and configuration, the way of storing data can possibly change, and handling MySQL data on filesystem level is not our expertise area really.
