Well, after a lot of googling and some hacking, we now have a set of working scripts, based on these, the original sources from the book, some versions converted from the tcl version of cyradm to perl-Cyrus, and some hacking. There is only one important issue, and that is that messages lose their status flags (ie read messages appear unread). Ideally, we would like to keep these. Any idea if the imap method would retain them? Otherwise, I have one more thing to fix, otherwise we are about ready to migrate the mail on the box in question (though we have some other tasks to do also before we actually do it). If this is the method to use, I will package everything up as a seperate package.
