Migrating email accounts from a cPanel hosting environment to Mail-in-a-Box

Part 1: Pregame

Send a mass email to all of your account holders, letting them know that you will be migrating their email accounts to a new server. Send them the instructions from MiaB control panel for connecting to your MiaB server from their mobile/Outlook/Gmail/etc, if applicable. Also, send them a link to the new webmail address. Be sure to give adequate advanced notice (several days, if possible). Advise them to not change their passwords during this time (their passwords will be preserved during migration).
Create a new "test" email account in the MiaB control panel for your domain. This will let MiaB set up the DNS records needed for the domain.

Part 2: Copy credentials

Copy the email account credentials from your cPanel host to MiaB:

While CloudPanel is a great panel, it lacked the ability to add domain aliases or parked domains without manually modifying nginx config files.
Even if you modify the vhost server_name with addon domain, it still shares any SSL certificate with the main domain, which is not optimum for our use case, so below is our solution to have the domain be completely independent (Own SSL, own Vhost file) but share the directory of your main domain as an alias while still using the web interface (mostly) to manage the new alias: \

What is required?
-Main site (let's assume main site document path is /home/mainsite/htdocs/mainsite.com and the username and group are "mainuser")
-Secondary site (we're going to create it following the steps in this Gist) \

Steps:
1-Create a new site (Use any template other than reverse proxy, we recommend PHP).
2-Generate the SSL using let's encrypt for your new site like you'd normal do for any website. \
