Guillaume,
I wrote a perl script that uses Mail::IMAPClient to transfer mailboxes
entirely via IMAP, as I had the same problems you had with imapcp. I
have used it successfully to migrate mailboxes from the Sun Internet
Messaging Server to Cyrus, but your mileage may vary. I also had to
debug and patch Mail::IMAPClient because I found it would deadlock
with the IMAP server during large message uploads. I've been very busy
and haven't sent my patch to the IMAPClient maintainer yet, but I'll
attach it here for you, along with my script. Note that the script has
ONLY been tested on my own servers, and you may run in to all kinds of
weird stuff so use with caution, although it works very well for me.
The Mail::IMAPClient patch is for version 2.1.3, so you will need to
get that from CPAN, install it, and then apply my patch:
patch /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5*/Mail/IMAPClient.pm \
< IMAPClient.pm-2.1.3.patch
before my script will run properly. If you can't find 2.1.3 (shouldn't
be a problem, I think that's the latest release) let me know and I'll
send you a tarball.
You need to set a few variables in the beginning of the script to
customize it for your environment.
