I have an older system that crashed - cyrus version is a couple years
or so old. I have 1000's of messages in the spool that I need to
preserve. My question is about whether there's a way to import that
huge tree of messages into a new cyrus installation without imap-to-imap
connectivity?
I've run into a strange problem that I originally thought was my IMAP
client (Thuderbird) which turns out to be something with my cyrus
setup. I deleted the account and re-configured it to be sure.
