   Apologizes for the thread diversion here but I've been seeing a lot
of discussion about using imapsync to migrate servers.  From what I have
read in the documentation, you must have each user's password.  How is
this possible in a business environment where you can't have (or
shouldn't have) that information because of legal/privacy/ethical
reasons?  Is there something I'm missing in the docs?

I believe authuser is used. From man page:


You may authenticate as one user (typically an admin user), but be authorized as someone else, which means you don’t need to know every user’s personal password. Specify --authuser1 "adminuser" to enable this on host1. In this case, --authmech1 PLAIN will be used by default since it is the only way to go for now. So don’t use --authmech1 SOMETHING with --authuser1 "adminuser", it will not work. Same behavior with the --authuser2 option.

For a task like this, I would use imapsync, a well documented,
well supported and open source tool.

I've used imapsync to migrate an internal server from 2.1.18 to 2.4.17
without any problems. Good tool.

Ciao!
