Migrating to IMAP?

[Maurice Snellen]

Listmembers:

I'm considering migrating to IMAP, but I'd like to keep all the mail
that is currently downloaded locally to my TB! in a POP3 account.

As I have several hundreds of folders and rules, this is quite an
effort, so before I embark on this journey, I'd like to ask two things.

1) is there a 'best practice' as to how to go about this?

2) is there a way to have rules that auto-create folders for mails to be
sorted into, to create IMAP ones. I've noticed that if I copy the rule
from my POP3 account to my IMAP version, autocreated folders are local
and not IMAP and I can't see a way to change them.

Because there are several rules in my setup that make use of this
feature, this could well be a show-stopper for me. If this cannot be
amended, I will probably not even try going to IMAP.

Hello Maurice,

MS 2) is there a way to have rules that auto-create folders for mails to be
MS sorted into, to create IMAP ones. I've noticed that if I copy the rule
MS from my POP3 account to my IMAP version, autocreated folders are local
MS and not IMAP and I can't see a way to change them.
