Q. We have found that the sent time and date have been changed to the
time at which the file was synchronised.
R. I guess this is the case with Eudora but not with Mutt, no ?
R. This is the case with:
- Eudora
- Zimbra
but not with
- Mutt
- Thunderbird
Eurora shows by default the time the imap server received the email.
I think it is quite a strong behavior since the messages can
have travelled some time before the reception.

Q: Multiple copies when I run imapsync twice ore more.
R. Multiple copies of the emails on the destination
server. Some IMAP servers (Domino for example) add some
headers for each message transfered. The message is
transfered again and again each time you run imapsync. This
is bad of course. The explanation is that imapsync considers
the message is not the same since headers have changed (one
line added) and size too (the header part). You can look at
the headers found by imapsync by using the --debug option
(and search for the message on both part). The way to avoid
this problem is by using options --skipheader and
--skipsize, like this (avoid headers beginning whith the
string "X-"):
imapsync ... --skipheader '^X-' --skipsize
You can use --skipheader only one time; if you need to skip
several different headers use the "or" perl regex caracter
which is "|". Example:
imapsync ... --skipheader '^X-|^Status|^Bcc'
