Hi,

-- Joseph Silverman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> is rumored to have mumbled on 2. Dezember 2005 15:37:20 -0800 regarding moving inbox from uw-imap to cyrus:

I can use the cyrus admin user to access the cyrus side at a "global
level".

I can then use a tool like imapsync to copy mailboxes from uw-imap to
cyrus easily enough.

What I can't figure out is how to move the INBOX.  There appears to  be
no "mailbox prefix" that when used with the cyrus admin user, will  put
the email in the users INBOX (the special one where new email  lands, not
a folder named INBOX under it!)

I'm not sure I understand you correctly. The INBOX is just called (with variations that depend on your imapd.conf settings), for instance, "user/yossie". If you do proxy authentication (using admin for authentication and actual user for authorization), which may be a little "cleaner", then it's always called "INBOX". I don't know if imapsync allows for proxy authentication.

Cheers, Sebastian
