Thank you for the reply. I did find imapsync whilst perusing Google. I will give it a shot, it sounds more realistic/reliable. I have a hoard of emails going back to 1999, so I want as few errors as possible :)

Hi there,
I was in the same position, but for mutliple accounts. Still you might want to look at imapsync (https://github.com/imapsync/imapsync), isync and offlineimap. There are more alternatives listed at the imapsync homepage.

I have been attempting to use the cyrus2dovecot script, to no avail.
I have many years of content that I want to convert from Cyrus to Dovecot; with the above not working, what are other options out there? Another idea I had is simply set up another IMAP server (using Dovecot) and drag-and-drop and just wait, which I may end up doing.
In the above, I copied over my entire /var/imap and /var/spool/imap to another system; there is only one account (mine), so calling the script was fairly easy; it just doesn't work.
inboxes=the "myaccount" that was copied over
/home/myaccount/cyrus2dovecot --cyrus-inbox /home/myaccount/inboxes/%u
--cyrus-seen /home/myaccount/varimap/user/%h/%u.seen
--cyrus-sub /home/varimap/user/%h/%u.sub
--dovecot-inbox /home/myaccount/dovecot/Maildir
myaccountthe log output complains of:
cyrus2dovecot [myaccount]: (warning) Index record missing for: INBOX/62020.and correctly complains about squat indices, as that's not a file it would handle. There is no output into the Maildir, however.
All directory paths are correct.
Thanks.
