imapsync with Netscape Messaging server

[bonds]

We are migrating from Netscape Messaging Server. I am trying to use imapsync to move the mailboxes but I'm having problems with using authuser and Netscape (the zimbra side is working fine). Anyone with Netscape experience know if something has to be set on the server for this to work?

Thanks

This command works fine.
/usr/bin/imapsync --buffersize 65535000 --syncinternaldates --noauthmd5 --ssl1 --host1 sydney.wi.mit.edu --user1 Bugs_Bunny --password1 bugspass --host2 argon.labrat.wi.mit.edu --user2 bonds --authuser2 admin --password2 adminpass --authmech2 PLAIN

But when I add authuser for our current mail setup it fails.

The only entry in the Netscape imap log is a failed login for the user

Two suggestions, if I may...

First, try using a later version of imapsync. The 1.99 version is available from:
SLES10 imapsync
You may also want to add that source as an additional Installation Repository.

Second, (probably you have done this already!) there are some good scripts to use on this wiki page:
Batch Processing Without Knowing Users' Passwords

Hope that helps,
