NAME

       imapcopy - IMAP backup, copy and migration tool

SYNOPSIS

       imapcopy

DESCRIPTION

       Read imapcopy -h for reference. An example configuration file can be
       found in the directory /usr/share/doc/imapcopy/examples.

       Sadly IMAPCopy does not have builtin SSL/TLS support, so you can not
       connect to most modern IMAP servers. A workaround is to run stunnel -c
       -f -d 1143 -r imap.boh.org:993 -P '' in parallel with IMAPCopy and then
       modify the configuration to connect to port 1143 on localhost. Here we
       have assumed that imap.boh.org is your IMAP server. Note, that if you
       need this hack for both source and destination, then you have to use
       two instances of stunnel and you have to configure them for different
       ports, of course (e.g. 1143 and 2143).
