I guess the old domain should be kept. Renaming all the users does not  
make too much sense as that also affects the data stored in IMAP. Its  
easier to solve that by using aliases.

On the other hand this might also cause problems if you add newer  
users in your new domain. They won't be able to share IMAP folders  
with user created in the old domain.

So there are indeed other things to think of. Would be nice to do that  
via a script, yes.

Cheers,

Gunnar
