I have a requirement for a client to move a large set of IMAP mailboxes from one server to another.You would think given that email is hugely popular and migration occurrences must happen all the time that a tool would exist to help migrate from one server to another, you'd be hugely surprised to also learn...there is not.As an agency we need to take care of these migrations for our clients so we're trying to nail down a process that works and that we will be confident in using going forward.Our hosting company seems to have even less of an idea than we do as to what we could do, so i'm turning to stack and it's users.Somethings I know already and don't want to hear:Manual syncing of IMAP accounts back to the server by the client (relying on this for over 50 mailboxes is just to cumbersome)Somethings I know and seem useful:There are PHP scripts out there to connect to imap mail servers and migrate (these interest me since PHP is my main prog language). However, i've had no luck so far with any I have tried. I need IMAP folders to also be migrated (i.e Sent, Custom folders etc) I need read or unread status to remain intact.I'll update this post if I think of anything else I can add to it.So, what do you think?
