<h2>What is imapsync?</h2>
2011-03-12 03:44:55 +01:00
<p><b>imapsync</b> software is a command line tool allowing incremental and
2012-04-17 00:28:48 +02:00
recursive <b>IMAP</b> transfers from one mailbox to another, both anywhere on the internet
2012-04-17 00:30:19 +02:00
or in your local network. "Incremental" means you can stop the transfer at any time
2012-11-27 23:32:36 +01:00
and restart it later efficiently. "Recursive" means all folders hierarchy can be copied.
"Command line" means it's not a graphical tool, imapsync on Windows has to be run in a DOS box
(cmd.exe) or from a <a href="#DOC_BASIC">batch file</a>.
2011-03-12 03:45:01 +01:00
</p>
2011-03-12 03:44:59 +01:00
2011-03-12 03:45:01 +01:00
<p><b>imapsync</b> is useful for imap account <b>migration</b> or imap account <b>backup</b>.
</p>
2011-03-12 03:44:59 +01:00
2012-04-17 00:28:48 +02:00
<p><b>imapsync</b> is <b>not adequate</b> for maintaining two active imap accounts
in synchronization where the user plays independently on both sides.
Use <a href="https://github.com/nicolas33/offlineimap"><b>offlineimap</b></a> (written by John Goerzen)
or <a href="http://isync.sourceforge.net/"><b>mbsync</b></a> (written by Michael R. Elkins)
for <b>2 ways synchronizations</b>.

<ul>
<li><b>1.516</b></li>
<li><b>Usability</b>: Added <b>host2 minus host1 statistic</b>: number of messages and bytes.
One difference at the start and one at the end.
Useful to <b>detect quickly a difference between host2 and host1</b>.

2012-12-29 01:43:39 +01:00
<li><b>Usability</b>: Added <b>--foldersizesatend</b>.
It gets the folders sizes at the end of the whole transfer.
2012-11-27 23:32:36 +01:00

2012-12-29 01:43:39 +01:00
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added option <b>--delete2duplicates</b>;
it deletes messages in host2 that are duplicates.
2012-11-27 23:32:36 +01:00
--delete2duplicates is on when --delete2 is set unless --nodelete2duplicates is set too.
</li>
<li><b>Usability</b>: Added <b>current date at the beginning</b> of the run,
useful when imapsync doesn't end properly or hasn't finished yet.</li>
2012-12-29 01:43:39 +01:00
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added option <b>--pidfilelocking</b>;

</li>
2012-12-29 01:43:39 +01:00
<li><b>Bug fix</b>: Added option <b>--fixslash2</b>
to avoid the '<b>Invalid mailbox name</b>' error.
It acts when --sep1 is character / and --sep2 is not character /
and host1 folder name contains --sep2 characters.

<p>
2012-12-29 01:43:39 +01:00
In order to migrate many mailboxes a good way is to use a loop over a csv
file containing only the data credentials.
A example of this file is <b><a href="./examples/file.txt">file.txt</a></b>,
it can be used by the two following command scripts.<br/>
On Windows, see <b><a href="./examples/sync_loop_windows.bat">sync_loop_windows.bat</a></b>
batch example.<br/>
On Unix, see <b><a href="./examples/sync_loop_unix.sh">sync_loop_unix.sh</a></b>

<p>I have no share in these free or paid services.
I don't think they use imapsync.
Prices are given par mailbox and may be outdated (december 2011).</p>
