Imapsync tips about archiving messages.
|
|
============================================
|
|
|
|
=======================================================================
|
|
Q. Can I archive different accounts on the same destination account,
|
|
each account on a separate folder?
|
|
|
|
R. Yes. Use --subfolder2
|
|
|
|
--subfolder2 str : Move whole host1 folders hierarchy under the
|
|
host2 folder str.
|
|
It is done it by adding two --regextrans2 options before
|
|
all others. Add --debug to see what's really going on.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
imapsync ... --user1 foo --subfolder2 foo
|
|
|
|
imapsync ... --user1 bar --subfolder2 bar
|
|
|
|
In case you need a strict sync, add --delete2 --delete2foldersonly "foo"
|
|
(or "bar"), il will delete on account2 what is not on account1 but only
|
|
in the right place, ie, the subfolder "foo".
|
|
|
|
imapsync ... --user1 foo --subfolder2 foo --delete2 --delete2foldersonly "foo"
|
|
|
|
=======================================================================
|
|
Q. How to move emails from one IMAP folder to another either on the
|
|
same IMAP server or a different one?
|
|
For example, all messages older than 1 year, move from INBOX to Archive.
|
|
|
|
R1. Solution:
|
|
|
|
imapsync ... --minage 365 --folder Inbox --f1f2 INBOX=Archive --delete --noexpungeaftereach
|
|
|
|
Add option --noexpungeaftereach if speed is a concern.
|
|
Add option --delete if you want to move messages, instead of just copy/sync them.
