I can see the blogs but not the email attachments.......

I could delete and try again or is it easier/better to wait till staff have looked?

Don't delete. Please wait for awhile and see if the images manifest. If they don't then come back and type modlook into the sidebar of this thread.

The posts seem to have copied over fine but not the media attachments, is this normal or do I need to try again or do it all manually?

Can it be done easily?

One of my clients is running a wordpress site on my server at the moment (including thousands of users) and they want to switch their hosting to wordpress.com yet I can't really find any documentation to tell me whether or not I will have database access once they get an account with wordpress.com so I can import their users etc. Is this possible, will I have some kind of access to the database? If I don't with wordpress.com, how on earth am I going to move all of their users etc.?
