Hello, I've been tasked with migrating a smallish (@90 mailboxes) company from a linux/dovecot mail server to Office 365, and after experiencing a ton of issues with Microsoft's native Imap syncing tool, I decided to use Imapsync, and it is working perfectly.
It has the ability to add a simple regex translation for mapping folders of different names - mainly used for the special use folders that can have different names depending on the server/client involved. Ie, dovecot/Thunderbird use 'Sent', 'Trash' and 'Junk', while Office65/Outlook use 'Sent Items', 'Deleted Items' and 'Junk Emails'. So, a few simple regex lines in the ImapSync commandline options and problem solved: --regextrans2 's/Sent$/Sent Items/' \ --regextrans2 's/Trash$/Deleted Items/' \ --regextrans2 's/Junk$/Junk Email/' \ I do use a few more to catch a few other cases, but you get the idea. I'd be surprised if rsync can't do something similar?
