Hello,
I am trying to migrate a server with 10K accounts under courier Imapd to Cyrus. I have got the imapmigrate from http://sourceforge.net/projects/cyrus-utils/, but while I start the script, it creates only empty folders. No messages are migrated to Cyrus.
I tried the debug mode, I made many changes to imapmigrate script, but I still couldn't get the old courier messages to cyrus.
Does anyone know what is wrong or can recommend any other migration tool?
Thanks for any help
Christiano

I am attempting the same project. I was looking at ImapSync and also just drag and dropping from thunderbird. I noticed that Cyrus rejects any email with "invalid header" if the message has "From " (from_line) as the first line. From my brief googling it appears the "From " thing looks to be/have been a standard Unix thing and procmail seems to append this into the message also. Probably why I couldn't get postfix/procmail working with Cyrus, but that made me discover what sieve is. ;-)
I wonder if there some kind of switch in a conf file to make Cyrus accept "From " as a valid header? This would make the migration much easier. If not I will have to remove the "From " line in messages that have it. --- Cyrus Home Page: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyruswiki.andrew.cmu.edu List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
