<h2>What is imapsync? <a href="#TOP" id="WHATIS"><small>(back to menu)</small></a>
</h2>
<p>
Imapsync is an <b>IMAP transfers tool</b>.
The purpose of imapsync is to <b>migrate</b> IMAP accounts or to <b>backup</b> IMAP accounts.
IMAP is one of the three current standard protocols to access mailboxes,
the two other are POP3 and HTTP with webmails,
webmails are often tied to an IMAP server.
</p>
<p>Latest imapsync published release <!--#exec cmd="cat ./VERSION" -->
was written on <!--#flastmod file="VERSION" -->
</p>
<p><b>Imapsync</b> software is a command line tool that allows incremental and
recursive <b>IMAP</b> transfers from one mailbox to another, both anywhere on the internet
or in your local network. Imapsync runs on <b>Windows</b>, <b>Linux</b>, <b>Mac OS X</b>.
"<b>Incremental</b>" means you can stop the transfer at any time
and restart it later efficiently, without generating duplicates.
"<b>Recursive</b>" means the complete folders hierarchy can be copied, all folders, all subfolders etc.
"<b>Command line</b>" means it's not a graphical tool, on Windows you have to run imapsync
from a <a href="#DOC_BASIC">batch file</a>. Anyway there is a visual online service, you can try imapsync at <a href="https://imapsync.lamiral.info/X/">https://imapsync.lamiral.info/X/</a>
</p>
<p>
<b>Imapsync can't migrate Contacts and Calendars</b>.
Most email systems don't set or get Contacts or Calendars via the IMAP protocol.
No way via IMAP, no way via imapsync
but it can be done with other tools or via export/import of csv or ics files.
Also consider using <a href="http://caldavsynchronizer.org/">caldavsynchronizer</a> or asking experts at <a href="https://twitter.com/sumatra_dev">Sumatra company</a>.
</p>
<p>
<b>imapsync</b> is not suitable for maintaining a synchronization between two active imap accounts while the user
is working on both sides.
Use <a href="http://offlineimap.org/"><b>offlineimap</b></a> (written by John Goerzen)
or <a href="http://isync.sourceforge.net/"><b>mbsync</b></a> (written by Michael R. Elkins)
for <b>bidirectionnal (2 ways) synchronizations</b>.
</p>
<p>Alternatives to imapsync are listed in the <a href="S/external.shtml"><b>Similar softwares</b></a> section.
</p>
<!--
<p>Imapsync used to be free, open and gratis, that was before November 2010.
Now imapsync is free, open and not gratis from the homepage.
Imapsync is still under the <a href="./NOLIMIT">NOLIMIT</a> license,
claiming no limit to do anything with this work and this license,
so one of the most open license of the universe.
It is the best decision I've made about imapsync in order to continue to maintain it.
See detailed explanation and motivation here when
<a href="http://www.linux-france.org/prj/imapsync_list/msg00459.html">I looked for a business model</a>.
"Download and donate if happy" doesn't work well.
"Pay for download and I pay back if unhappy" works well, a 100 times better.

<h3>Payment by bank transfer and IBAN <a href="#TOP" id="IBAN"><small>(back to menu)</small></a>
</h3>
<p>If you can't pay with a credit card via Paypal then it is possible to pay via a bank transfer.
It will surely add extra work editing the invoice, back and forth getting good coordinates,
so I will mandatory charge both software+support for payment via bank transfer, that is 100 EUR.
Drop me an email to test imapsync and to be sure it will do what you need it to do, before any payment.<br />
The bank account references will be given upon request.

<h2>Facts and figures <a href="#TOP" id="NUMBERS"><small>(back to menu)</small></a>
</h2>
<ul>
<li><b>4000 to 5000 </b>users per month (40000 users a year).</li>
<li>6 to 10 millions mailboxes transfers per month.</li>
<li><b>103 millions</b> transfers for 2016,
that is three whole mailboxes synced per second in average, and an estimation of 20 petabytes transferred in total.
</li>
<li><b>Operating systems</b> run by imapsync users (in 2016):
<ul>
<li><b>Linux: 72%</b></li>
<li><b>Win32: 15%</b></li>
<li><b>Darwin: 8%</b></li>
<li><b>FreeBSD: 3%</b></li>
<li>Solaris: 0.09%</li>
<li>OpenBSD: 0.11%</li>
<li>Unknown .01 %</li>
<li>Other: 0.48%</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><b>Highest use rate</b>: about <b>56 millions</b> of IMAP mailbox transfers by just one host.</li>
<li><b>Biggest known account</b> migrated: <b>2.4 millions folders</b> (figure independently reported).</li>
</ul>
<p>
Where all those numbers come from?
To know whether a newer imapsync exists or not, imapsync does a http GET to the file
<a href="http://imapsync.lamiral.info/VERSION">VERSION</a>.
Via the <b>User-agent</b> parameter it also sends:</p>
<ul>
<li>imapsync release</li>
<li>Perl version</li>
<li>Mail::IMAPClient version</li>
<li>Operating System</li>
</ul>
<p>You can <b>remove this behavior</b> by adding option <b>--noreleasecheck</b> on the command line
(or by setting $releasecheck = 0 in the source code).
Check <a href="http://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/detail?vulnId=CVE-2013-4279">CVE-2013-4279</a>.

<h2>How to transfer a single mailbox on Windows <a href="#TOP" id="DOC_BASIC"><small>(back to menu)</small></a>
</h2>
<p>
After Imapsync installation, a basic (and really working) example in a DOS window is the following: </p>
<pre>.\imapsync.exe ^
--host1 test1.lamiral.info ^
--user1 test1 ^
--password1 "secret1" ^
--host2 test2.lamiral.info ^
--user2 test2 ^
--password2 "secret2"
</pre>
<p>But it's better to edit a batch file and run it by a double-click.
Take this batch file example <b><a href="./examples/imapsync_example.bat">imapsync_example.bat</a></b>
and adapt with your own parameters.

<h2>How to transfer a single mailbox on Linux/Unix <a href="#TOP" id="DOC_BASIC_UNIX"><small>(back to menu)</small></a>
</h2>
<p>
After Imapsync installation, a basic (and really working) example in a shell terminal is the following: </p>
<pre>./imapsync \

--password1 "secret1" \
--host2 test2.lamiral.info \
--user2 test2 \

But it's better to edit a shell script and run it in a terminal.
Take this Bourne shell script example <b><a href="./examples/imapsync_example.sh">imapsync_example.sh</a></b>
and adapt with your own parameters.
</p>
<h2>How to transfer many mailboxes <a href="#TOP" id="DOC_MASS"><small>(back to menu)</small></a>
</h2>
<p>
In order to migrate many mailboxes, you should use a loop over a csv
file containing only the data credentials.<br />
On Windows, see <b><a href="./examples/sync_loop_windows.bat">sync_loop_windows.bat</a></b>
batch example.<br />
On Unix, see <b><a href="./examples/sync_loop_unix.sh">sync_loop_unix.sh</a></b>
example.<br />
An example of this csv file is <b><a href="./examples/file.txt">file.txt</a></b>,
it can be used with the two previous command scripts.<br />
