    You must change the MX records of your domains that you moved to the new server.

    On the old server, create a Postfix transport now so that all emails are forwarded to the new server (for the time until the MX records of your domains have switched to the new server):

    Code:
    echo "*  smtp:[<IP address of new server>]" >> /etc/postfix/transport
    postmap /etc/postfix/transport
    /etc/init.d/postfix restart

    thanks for answer
    but i wonder what should i change only in ispconfig configuration

    in config there are

    $conf['modules_available'] = 'dashboard,mail,admin,sites,monitor,client,dns,help';

    $conf['interface_modules_enabled'] = 'dashboard,mail,sites,dns,tools';

    should i remove mail form here ?

    should I remove any sumlinks from
    plugins-enabled
    mods-enabled
    ?

    something else ?

    If you disable the mail module, you won't be able to configure mail on the slave... Just change the MX records and don't configure any new email accounts on the main server.
