    Hi,
    I have a new customer that would like their mailboxes copied over. I've never needed to do this before. I'm not sure what tech they use with their current hosting provider but I'd read somewhere that there's a simple way to copy an entire mailbox through imap. Can anyone recommend how to do this?
    Many thanks, Nick

    If the old provider provides IMAP to access the emails, then I would use imapsync or imapcopy, these are commandline tools qhich work on Linux. And as @Taleman mentioned it indirectly, this has been covered in several threads already :)
