Dave,
If possible, make sure the server is the same platform. If you're
moving to a UNIX filesystem, the case of your filenames must be
exactly the same as the files mentioned in your pages.
If you're moving your domain's email too, make sure your new setup
has a "catch all" account. Even if you haven't set up all your
existing email addresses at the new place, they wont be bounced.
