Here is my little script I use for IMAP Sync, it may be of use to someone.

basiclly all the users are in a file called userlist.txt

which looks like this,

username1;password1
username2;password2
username3;password3
username4;password4
username5;password5

This assumes that the usernames and passwords are the same on both servers. also, the username

is just everything before the @ in the email address.

I wrote it so I could monitor IMAP sync's progress and keep logs of what it does.

#!/bin/bash

logfile="sinklog.txt"

host1=123.123.123.123
#host1 is Source

host2=321.321.321.321
#host2 is Dest

domain=xyz.com
#domain is where email account is
#everything after @ symbol
