How about doveadm-sync (https://doc.dovecot.org/main/core/man/doveadm-sync.1.html) or imapsync?

Hi list.

I have an email address hosted on a server not controlled by me which
enforces quota on the accounts. No issues there.
What I want to know, is how can I use my mail server, or in this case,
dovecot, to act as a "client" to that imap server and download all the
messages from it storing them locally (in my server) in effect, bypassing
the quota restriction.
If you can point me to some documentation or give a general idea on how I
could accomplish this it would be nice.

Thanks in advance!
