I have a vanilla IMAP account for work, and they also provisioned me a hosted Google email account.
I have tried good ol' drag-and-drop migration with Thunderbird on more than a few occasions, and it was a miserable failure. I am now interested in using a proper syncing tool, and scripting it effectively so I no longer have to work about running up against a quota.
Has anyone used imapsync
with good results? If not, do they recommend any other migration tools? I would love if someone could confirm the ability of imapsync to map to different folder paths (think Inbox -> Inbox.JanuaryToDecember2010) or any tool that can migrate to a path different than the original email folder location in the new account. It would make organizing really easy.

Per your answers to the post you linked: 1) Not really what I am looking for 2) I am sure something opensource, imapsync or otherwise, must be better and 3) I email quota will probably run out soon enough that I do not have time to code a solution. I would love (3), but I need some assurance it gets copied because this is work email and I am a coding amateur, to be honest.
