Quoting Bjoern Burger <b.burger@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>:

Hello,

we have sucessfully installed a mailserver with Sendmail, MySQL and Cyrus.
Now we want to migrate the user mails from the old server (qmail) to the new.

I have tried imapsync and it works fine, but it takes too long for our
not so small imap-folders.
So we are looking forward to find another solution. We have thought
about copying  the old qmail mails to the new server and migrate them
to Cyrus.
But we have not found a solution yet where we could keep flag
informations like read or unread.

Could anyone give me a piece of advise in this matter?

Best regards,

Bjoern Burger


You might want to have a look at mailutil from UW-Imap, which uses the IMAP protocol to copy the Mailbox but is much faster than imapsync.

And Perdition http://verge.net.au/linux/perdition which is an IMAP/POP proxy which can be used to redirect user form the old to the new server depending on the status of ther migration
