With a POP3 server, there's nothing to migrate except the user accounts themselves (usernames and passwords).

All the message data is stored on each individual's local computer; nothing is stored on the server. That's the whole point of POP.

Just create the accounts on the Zimbra server, and you're done.

(If user's really want, they can connect to the Zimbra server via IMAP and drag/drop or copy/paste their messages from their local computer back up to the server.)

You can't use imapsync. There's no e-mail to migrate. POP3 servers don't store the mail on the server. It's all downloaded to the user's computer.

All you have to do is create the user accounts on Zimbra, and configure the user's computers to access Zimbra instead of the old POP3 server.

If they have existing email that they have not retrieved then from with the ZWC (Zimbra Web Client) you can also setup a external collection account.
