I think you are referring to the scripts I wrote (Oregon State University!
Go Beavers!). They were good enough to handle OSU's migration to Cyrus,
but it wouldn't surprise me if they have some flaws. Two problems that I
am aware of are:
1. IMAP flags are not migrated (most notably SEEN).
2. It does not handle unixhierarchysep: yes on the target system (easily
fixed).
If you have any suggestions for fixes, I'd be happy to update the scripts.
One of the problems with any migration tools/script is that it is
typically only written and used once. :)
