# INSTALL file for imapsync
# imapsync : IMAP sync or copy tool.
INTRODUCTION
------------
imapsync works fine under any Unix OS with perl.
imapsync.exe works fine under Windows XP, Vista, Seven, 20XX.
UNIX
----
Buy imapsync at
http://www.linux-france.org/prj/imapsync/
You'll have access to a compressed tarball called imapsync-x.xx.tgz
where x.xx is the version number. Untar the tarball where
you want (on Unix):
tar xzvf imapsync-x.xx.tgz
Go into the directory imapsync-x.xx and read the INSTALL file.
You're already reading the INSTALL file.
WINDOWS
-------
a) Simplest way:
- Buy imapsync.exe at http://www.linux-france.org/prj/imapsync/
- Use imapsync.exe.
b) Hard way:
- Get imapsync-x.xx.tgz
- Install Perl if it isn't already installed.
Strawberry Perl is a good candidate
- Use PPM to install modules listed in the PREREQUISITES section.
PPM is Perl Package Manager.
PREREQUISITES
-------------
This section doesn't concern Windows imapsync.exe users.
You need :
- Perl
try : perl -v
Get Perl here:
http://www.perl.org/
- Some perl modules. To verify you have
all modules in one command, just run:
perl -c imapsync
The good answer is "imapsync syntax OK".
Here is some individual module help:
- Perl Mail::IMAPClient module
try :
perl -mMail::IMAPClient -e ''
Get the Mail::IMAPClient module here:
http://search.cpan.org/
http://search.cpan.org/~djkernen/
http://search.cpan.org/~djkernen/Mail-IMAPClient-2.2.9/
In fact I use Mail-IMAPClient-2.2.9 and latest Mail-IMAPClient-2.xx
(xx >= 25)
To know the version you have on your system try :
perl -mMail::IMAPClient -e 'print $Mail::IMAPClient::VERSION, "\n"'
New Mail-IMAPClient-3.xx works now with imapsync,
at least with Mail-IMAPClient-3.25 (previous may bug)
- Perl Digest::MD5 module.
try:
perl -mDigest::MD5
http://search.cpan.org/
http://search.cpan.org/~gaas/Digest-MD5-2.36/
To know the version you have on your system try :
perl -mDigest::MD5 -e 'print $Digest::MD5::VERSION, "\n"'
I use 2.36 (debian etch package)
- Term::ReadKey
perl -mTerm::ReadKey -e ''
- IO:Socket:SSL.pm
perl -mIO::Socket::SSL -e ''
- File::Spec
perl -mFile::Spec -e ''
- File::Path
perl -mFile::Path -e ''
- Perl Digest::HMAC_MD5 module
Good for non plain text password over network.
- Perl Authen::NTLM
perl -mAuthen::NTLM -e ''
Everything in one command:
perl -mMail::IMAPClient -mDigest::MD5 -mTerm::ReadKey -mIO::Socket::SSL \
-mFile::Spec -mDigest::HMAC_MD5 -mAuthen::NTLM -e ''
INSTALLING on Unix
------------------
To see what will be done, just run:
make -n install
To install imapsync, just run:
make install
or copy the file imapsync where you want it to be.
TESTING on Unix
---------------
The test will break as they are home specific.
You need a running imap server on localhost with several accounts
toto with a password located in the file $HOME/var/pass/secret.toto
titi with a password located in the file $HOME/var/pass/secret.titi
tata with a password located in the file $HOME/var/pass/secret.tata
Of course, you can change the file tests.sh and run the tests with :
sh -x tests.sh
The tests.sh script break on first failure ("set -e" directive).
Since I added more tests you also need a remote imap server see the
file tests.sh and help yourself. No time to make a universal test
file.
