Derek,

The problem seems to be in how the program fetches messages from one
imap store and then inserts them into the other imap store.  2 of the
programs were perl scripts and one was a binary.  It is not a bandwidth
issue.  I would love to just be able to move raw data files, but Scalix
uses a custom format to store the mail in so you have to use imap
inserts to get the data into it.
