Migration from Exchange

[Neil Price]

With reference to http://wiki.kolab.org/index.php/Microsoft_Exchange

The given method is

imapsync --host1 exchange --noauthmd5 --user1 "$u1" --password1 "$p1" \
          --host2 kolab    --user2 "$u2" --password2 "$p2" \
          --regextrans2 's/INBOX.INBOX/INBOX/'

  I found the this method only works if you have
unixhierarchysep: no

in imapd.conf

unixhierarchysep: yes seems to be the default.

I tried this with unixhierarchysep: yes
imapsync --host1 exchange --noauthmd5 --user1 "$u1" --password1 "$p1" \

          --host2 kolab    --user2 "$u2" --password2 "$p2" \
          --regextrans2 's/INBOX\/INBOX/INBOX/'

but it hangs transferring the inbox. Perhaps it should be

imapsync --host1 exchange --noauthmd5 --user1 "$u1" --password1 "$p1" \
          --host2 kolab    --user2 "$u2" --password2 "$p2" \
          --regextrans2 's/INBOX^INBOX/INBOX/'
