imapsync always loses data

never saw this, be carefull by anounce such myths

It is a fact. Imapsync works over IMAP only and IMAP protocol does not even support transferring all data. At most at least UID numbering will be lost and end users need to invalidate their local caches.

but using "looses data" might others think it also may fail with imap,
so be more detailed next time

UID number is also data that is saved on the IMAP backend. If that is lost then it's "lost data".

Sorry i migrated terrabytes of mail with imapsync and never had a
problem, it works as designed, also with maildir rsync did a good job,
what never worked as it should was dsync ,cause of bugs ,that may
changed now

so this is my answer to topic

"Best way to move mail from one server to another"

after all there is no "best way", there are a few ways
choose the one which fits best to your needs goals and starting points (
kind of servers etc )

Seems like there's an easy solution to the UID problem
