Extremely versatile software, for which you can buy professional support, but since it's free and open source, you can use it without any limitation - big kudos for the author, Gilles Lamiral!

Don’t be put off by the idiosyncratic website and interface, this software is completely solid and incredibly useful

This software is in fact opensource, but the source only can be obtained along a payment. Until version 1.252-1 it was freely available and could even be installed on debian (http://packages.debian.org/lenny/imapsync) since then the author changed the way he distributes the source.

What is imapsync?

Console-based utility for migrating IMAP mailboxes.

imapsync software is a command line tool allowing incremental and recursive imap transfers from one mailbox to another, both anywhere on the internet or in your local network.

imapsync is useful for imap account migration or imap account backup.

imapsync is not adequate for maintaining two active imap accounts in synchronization where the user plays independently on both sides.

The Perl imapsync source code will run anywhere a Perl interpreter can run: any Unix, Linux, Windows, or Mac OS operating system.
