What is imapsync FOR LINUX?

imapsync

imapsync is a handy tool for moving your emails from one mailbox to another. It makes those incremental recursive IMAP transfers super easy!

Why Use imapsync?

So, why would you want to use imapsync? Well, it's perfect for mailbox migration. It cuts down the data that needs to be transferred by only copying messages that aren't already on both servers. This means less waiting around for your emails to move!

Keep Your Flags Intact!

One of the coolest features is that it keeps your read, unread, and even deleted flags intact during the transfer. Plus, if you need to take a break during the process, you can stop and then just pick up right where you left off. And if you're all set with the transfer and want to clean things up, you can choose to delete the original messages once they've moved successfully.

Compatibility

imapsync works great on any Unix operating system! So no worries there.
