Error solaris 10 installation problem

Hi,

I have sun enterprise server which uses an lineox box as its mail server and for also storing backups. the mail is linked from the lineox box to sun server and theres a mount on the sun server linking the box for partition,

I want to get rid of lineox OS and install solaris 10. But i want to keep my old var/spool/mails for all users and also the backups...

is there an easy way to proceed

please advise
