[Dovecot] utility to copy/sync IMAP mailboxes
Well, my Dovecot server (v2.0.8) is up and running, and now it's time to migrate mailboxes from the old mail server [Lotus Domino Release 5.0.8] running on Windows NT 4.0 [ancient -- been the mail server since Aug-2000].
I saw "dsync(1)" and thought my troubles were over. Only I can't figure out how to make it work with the NT/Domino server as a source for mailboxes. I guess dsync(1) works only in completely *nix environment.
I've been trying the imapcopy.pl script from the IMAP Tools web page (http://www.athensfbc.com/imap_tools/), but it is having problems with Notes' choice of the backslash (\) character as a mailbox (namespace?) delimiter.
Any suggestions for a stable, reliable (copy/duplicate/mirror/sync) tool that can do the job using only IMAP access? (No SSL support required.)
Thanks in advance,
- Don

I've used IMAPSync fairly successfully (Perl), though I hear iSync is
supposed to be better (C)..

we had positive experiences with imapsync. This does migrate via imap from one box to the next - and supports Notes.

Don,
I've been trying the imapcopy.pl script from the IMAP Tools web page (http://www.athensfbc.com/imap_tools/), but it is having problems with Notes' choice of the backslash (\) character as a mailbox (namespace?) delimiter.
Please run imapcopy with the -I and -d arguments and send me the logfile. I'll fix this.
