Thank you, Michael. Do you know how to run mailutil in a script? I tried
it. But I could not find how to submit a user's password to it.

Greetings.
We are in the process of migrating from uw-imap to cyrus. I could not
find any tool to migrate message flags(answered, deleted, flagged,
draft, seen). I know that the first 4 flags are saved in cyrus.index
file and the seen one is in <userid>.seen file. The "tagged for
deletion" flag is very important to us and I need to migrate at least
this one. I wonder if anybody can give me a hand.
Thanks
The best way to perserve the flags is by transfering the eMails over
the IMAP-Protocol. There are severel tools to do this job. Most of
them are written to sync two ore more mailfolders.
As far as i have tested them there was no perfect ore even best
migration tool.
We will use the mailutil programm which comes with the uw-imap server.
It was the fastest programm and it keeps the flags.
