Basically you will always have _some_ mistamtched headers etc. The first
step is to exclude the size comparison. And then exclude headers you are
not interested in too. I used the following with 1.219 2 years ago hope
it gives you a starting point:
~/imapsync-1.219/imapsync \
--host1 localhost --user1 migrate --password1 abc123
--authmech1 PLAIN --port1 20143 \
--host2 localhost --user2 $user --password2 $pass
--authmech2 LOGIN \
--exclude '^\.|^mbox' --delete2 --expunge2 \
--syncinternaldates --subscribe \
--skipheader 'X-DBMail-PhysMessage-ID' --skipsize
