I have 2 users left on an OLD Cyrus installation I want to get off and was
hoping to use imapsync. It seemed to work just fine except dates of the
messages from the old server to the new were not retained. All of the
messages have the date they were imported instead. I ran imapsync on the
destination host, I wouldn't think that would make a difference - does it
matter?
/usr/bin/imapsync --syncinternaldates --host1 source.host --user1 bob \
--noauthmd5 --passfile1 /tmp/secret1 --host2 destination.host --user2 bob \
--noauthmd5 --passfile2 /tmp/secret2
I used it without --syncinternaldates and it worked fine, the dates were
imported correctly.
imapsync --host1 X.Y.Z.K --user1 joeblow --passfile1 pass1 \
--host2 A.B.C.D --user2 joeblow --passfile2 pass2 \
--authmech1 LOGIN --authmech2 LOGIN \
--prefix2 oldmail/ \
--subscribe
The --prefix2 option was used because I did not actually migrate one
account to another, but I just wanted to copy the old account under a
folder on the new account. That doesn't seem to be your case.
