Paul, replication is not available even with contract. There are some open source alternatives if you want to use replication, e.g. wormhole plugin.
I tried a couple of the open-source replicators. Neither worked and probably for different reasons.
Marc, your problem is that you are trying to setup sync over IMAP. If you are attempting to do this for migration, seehttps://doc.dovecot.org/2.4.2/core/admin/migration.html
I'll work with those instructions. Thanks. Sometimes, the problem is knowing what this thing is called that one wants to do.
Cheers
If you are indeed trying to do bidirectional sync with tcps you need to configure, on both servers
service doveadm { inet_listener 12345 { ssl = yes } }
doveadm_password = foobar
and then use
doveadm sync -R1 -u USER tcps:OLD_SERVER:12345
