ah interesting. the name sort of suggested that it would 'sync' only but i can see this has a lot more options ^^ still seems a bit overkill for my simple fetch&deliver locally requirement ;)

but always good to know there is something like this :)

maybe I'll look @ imapsync, but I just set up fetchmail which is really what i wanted anyway since I don't want to leave the mails on the ISPs server at the moment (and if I did i'd just add a 'keep' to the config ;)), so syncing
is not really what I want anyway ;)

imapsync --help

--delete : Deletes messages on host1 server after a successful transfer. Option --delete has the following behavior: it marks messages as deleted with the IMAP flag \Deleted, then messages are really deleted with an

--expunge1 : Expunge messages on host1 after messages transfer

___________________________________________________________________

usage: /usr/bin/imapsync [options]

Several options are mandatory.

--dry : Makes imapsync doing nothing, just print what would
                         be done without --dry.



--host1       <string> : Source or "from" imap server. Mandatory.

--port1       <int>    : Port to connect on host1. Default is 143.

--user1       <string> : User to login on host1. Mandatory.

--showpasswords        : Shows passwords on output instead of "MASKED".
Useful to restart a complete run by just reading a log.
--password1   <string> : Password for the user1.
--host2       <string> : "destination" imap server. Mandatory.
--port2       <int>    : Port to connect on host2. Default is 143.
--user2       <string> : User to login on host2. Mandatory.
--password2   <string> : Password for the user2.

--passfile1 <string> : Password file for the user1. It must contain the password on the first line. This option avoids to show the password on the command line like --password1 does. --passfile2 <string> : Password file for the user2. Contains the password.
--domain1     <string> : Domain on host1 (NTLM authentication).
--domain2     <string> : Domain on host2 (NTLM authentication).
--authuser1   <string> : User to auth with on host1 (admin user).
Avoid using --authmech1 SOMETHING with --authuser1.
--authuser2   <string> : User to auth with on host2 (admin user).
--proxyauth1           : Use proxyauth on host1. Requires --authuser1.
Required by Sun/iPlanet/Netscape IMAP servers to
                         be able to use an administrative user.
--proxyauth2           : Use proxyauth on host2. Requires --authuser2.
Required by Sun/iPlanet/Netscape IMAP servers to
                         be able to use an administrative user

--authmd51             : Use MD5 authentification for host1.
--authmd52             : Use MD5 authentification for host2.
--authmech1   <string> : Auth mechanism to use with host1:
                         PLAIN, LOGIN, CRAM-MD5 etc. Use UPPERCASE.
--authmech2 <string> : Auth mechanism to use with host2. See --authmech1
--ssl1                 : Use an SSL connection on host1.
--ssl2                 : Use an SSL connection on host2.
--tls1                 : Use an TLS connection on host1.
--tls2                 : Use an TLS connection on host2.
--timeout <int> : Connections timeout in seconds. Default is 120.
                         0 means no timeout.

--folder      <string> : Sync this folder.
--folder      <string> : and this one, etc.
--folderrec   <string> : Sync this folder recursively.
--folderrec   <string> : and this one, etc.
--include     <regex>  : Sync folders matching this regular expression
Blancs like in "foo bar" have to be written "foo\ bar"
--include     <regex>  : or this one, etc.
                         in case both --include --exclude options are
                         use, include is done before.
--exclude     <regex>  : Skips folders matching this regular expression
                         Several folders to avoid:
--exclude 'fold1|fold2|f3' skips fold1, fold2 and f3.
--exclude     <regex>  : or this one, etc.
--regextrans2 <regex> : Apply the whole regex to each destination folders.
--regextrans2 <regex>  : and this one. etc.
When you play with the --regextrans2 option, first
                         add also the safe options --dry --justfolders
Then, when happy, remove --dry, remove --justfolders. Have in mind that --regextrans2 is applied after prefix
                         and separator inversion.

--tmpdir <string> : Where to store temporary files and subdirectories.
                         Will be created if it doesn't exist.
                         Default is system specific, Unix is /tmp but
                         it's often small and deleted at reboot.
                         --tmpdir /var/tmp should be better.
--pidfile     <string> : The file where imapsync pid is written.
--pidfilelocking : Abort if pidfile already exists. Usefull to avoid
                         concurrent transfers on the same mailbox.

--prefix1     <string> : Remove prefix to all destination folders
(usually INBOX. or INBOX/ or an empty string "")
                         you have to use --prefix1 if host1 imap server
                         does not have NAMESPACE capability, all other
                         cases are bad.
--prefix2     <string> : Add prefix to all host2 folders. See --prefix1
--sep1 <string> : Host1 separator in case NAMESPACE is not supported. --sep2 <string> : Host2 separator in case NAMESPACE is not supported.

--regexmess <regex> : Apply the whole regex to each message before transfer. Example: 's/\000/ /g' # to replace null by space.
--regexmess   <regex>  : and this one.
--regexmess   <regex>  : and this one, etc.
--regexflag   <regex>  : Apply the whole regex to each flags list.
Example: 's/"Junk"//g' # to remove "Junk" flag.
--regexflag   <regex>  : and this one, etc.

--delete : Deletes messages on host1 server after a successful transfer. Option --delete has the following behavior: it marks messages as deleted with the IMAP flag \Deleted, then messages are really deleted with an
                         EXPUNGE IMAP command.
--delete2              : Delete messages in host2 that are not in
                         host1 server. Useful for backup or pre-sync.
--delete2duplicates    : Delete messages in host2 that are duplicates.
Works only without --useuid since duplicates are
                         detected with header part of each message.
--delete2folders : Delete folders in host2 that are not in host1 server. For safety, first try it like this (it is safe): --delete2folders --dry --justfolders --nofoldersizes
--delete2foldersonly   <regex>: Deleted only folders matching regex.
                         Example: --delete2foldersonly "/Junk
"
--delete2foldersbutnot <regex>: Do not delete folders matching regex.
Example: --delete2foldersbutnot "/Tasks1Contacts1Foo
"
--noexpunge            : Do not expunge messages on host1.
Expunge really deletes messages marked deleted. Expunge is made at the beginning, on host1 only. Newly transferred messages are also expunged if
                         option --delete is given.
No expunge is done on host2 account (unless --expunge2) --expunge1 : Expunge messages on host1 after messages transfer. --expunge2 : Expunge messages on host2 after messages transfer.
--uidexpunge2          : uidexpunge messages on the host2 account
that are not on the host1 account, requires --delete2

--syncinternaldates : Sets the internal dates on host2 same as host1. Turned on by default. Internal date is the date
                         a message arrived on a host (mtime).
--idatefromheader      : Sets the internal dates on host2 same as the
                         "Date:" headers.

--maxsize <int> : Skip messages larger (or equal) than <int> bytes --minsize <int> : Skip messages smaller (or equal) than <int> bytes
--maxage      <int>    : Skip messages older than <int> days.
final stats (skipped) don't count older messages
                         see also --minage
--minage      <int>    : Skip messages newer than <int> days.
final stats (skipped) don't count newer messages
                         You can do (+ are the messages selected):
                         past|----maxage+++++++++++++++>now
                         past|+++++++++++++++minage---->now
past|----maxage+++++minage---->now (intersection)
                         past|++++minage-----maxage++++>now (union)

--search <string> : Selects only messages returned by this IMAP SEARCH
                         command. Applied on both sides.
--search1 <string> : Same as --search for selecting host1 messages only. --search2 <string> : Same as --search for selecting host2 messages only. --search CRIT equals --search1 CRIT --search2 CRIT

--exitwhenover <int> : Stop syncing when total bytes transferred reached. Gmail per day allows 2500000000 down 500000000 upload.

--maxlinelength <int> : skip messages with line length longer than <int> bytes. RFC 2822 says it must be no more than 1000 bytes.

--useheader <string> : Use this header to compare messages on both sides.
                         Ex: Message-ID or Subject or Date.
--useheader   <string>   and this one, etc.

--subscribed           : Transfers subscribed folders.
--subscribe            : Subscribe to the folders transferred on the
host2 that are subscribed on host1. On by default.
--subscribe_all        : Subscribe to the folders transferred on the
host2 even if they are not subscribed on host1.

--nofoldersizes : Do not calculate the size of each folder in bytes and message counts. Default is to calculate them. --nofoldersizesatend : Do not calculate the size of each folder in bytes
                         and message counts at the end. Default is on.
--justfoldersizes      : Exit after having printed the folder sizes.

--syncacls             : Synchronises acls (Access Control Lists).
--nosyncacls : Does not synchronize acls. This is the default.
                         Acls in IMAP are not standardized, be careful.

--usecache             : Use cache to speedup.
--nousecache : Do not use cache. Caveat: --useuid --nousecache creates
                         duplicates on multiple runs.
--useuid : Use uid instead of header as a criterium to recognize messages. Option --usecache is then implied unless
                         --nousecache is used.

--debug                : Debug mode.
--debugcontent         : Debug content of the messages transfered.

                         credentials, then exit.
--justfolders : Do only things about folders (ignore messages).

--help                 : print this help.

Example: to synchronize imap account "foo" on "imap.truc.org"
                    to  imap account "bar" on "imap.trac.org"
                    with foo password "secret1"
                    and  bar password "secret2"
