Communigate is free to use for up to five accounts, I think it is
legal to install it and use the MoveIMAPMail utility.
I have used it once to migrate mail from Communigate to dovecot.

I used (had to) imapsync two weeks ago to move Mails from dovecote 2.1 to 2.2,
as doveadm failed (different versions issue).
Worked as expected. But all mails 60GB got resynced (summed up to approx. 250GB
due to several accounts being used across multiple clients).
Tried both - without and
Never mind, should have waited and read the entire thread...

Thanks everyone for you help and suggestions. I think I’ll use rsync.
I had a try today, and all looked fine. I created the mail store directory with
only root access on the new machine. Unfortunately that means I can’t transfer
using this login (no root login over ssh).
I’ll have to change

It is a fact. Imapsync works over IMAP only and IMAP protocol does not even
support transferring all

How do you test the new server?
(Sorry, this seems like it must be obvious. The server I set up is the
first one handling this domain, so testing was easy in that it didn't
have history.)

If you have lots of data, you can make an initial pass with rsync whilst
the old server is running and another rsync pass (with --delete, use dry
run to test) when you've shut down the old server to sync the changes
since the initial pass.
Good luck!

Thanks Sam
Users not using new mail server yet.
Both old and new using maildir.
Sounds like rsync is the way to go.
Thanks for your help.

You probably can do this with rsync, if you do not need to convert mail storage
format. Safest way would be to stop both servers, do rsync, start both servers.
If your users have already written to the new server, you will have to use
doveadm sync, otherwise data loss will occur.

I’d like to migrate to a new server. I only need to transfer the mail store,
have already done the users. I’ve seen different recommendations:
IMAP-Sync
Rsync
Doveadmin backup and
dsync
What are the pros and cons of each? What would be best for me? I’m thinking
that Doveadmin backup is the way
