IMAP Sync Issues

[borngunners]

I am having an error imapsyncing emails from my imap maildir to zimbra:

root@zimbra:/usr/share/imapsync# imapsync --buffersize 8192000 --nosyncacls --subscribe --syncinternaldates --host1 mail.test.com --user1 user1@mail.test.com --password1 error --authmech1=LOGIN --host2 zimbra.mail.test.com --user2 user1@mail.test.com --password2 error2 --authmech2=PLAIN --ssl2

you're wrong in:
--authmech1=LOGIN
--authmech2=PLAIN
must modify:
--authmech1 LOGIN
--authmech2 PLAIN
don't use "="

Thanks for your respond. I did made the changes you suggested, but it was the same error message. I am actually running this from the root directory as you can see. Any suggestions will be appreciated. I am migrating users one at a time, but will like to try it on my account first.
One thing I did before doing the imapsync was to increase the message size to 25m. I hope that is not the issue.

Are you sure all the options are in one command line ?

[borngunners]

Yes I am sure

[agnes]

Looks like only the first line is executing and then it's cut, that's why you might have the error while trying to execute second line:
bash: --authmech1=LOGIN: command not found -

[borngunners]

Yes, but when I switch to what was suggested by dalmate, I had the same error. I am not sure what is holding it up.

I tried your script and made some modifing, it worked well:

imapsync --buffersize 8192000 --nosyncacls --subscribe --syncinternaldates --host1 10.2.xxx.xxx --user1 test1@test1.com --password1 abc123 --authmech1 LOGIN --host2 10.2.xxx.xxx --user2 test2@test2.com --password2 abc123 --authmech2 PLAIN --ssl2

my host is ip address of my server

Thanks again Dalmate. But I honestly don't know what is stoping imapsync from doing what it is suppose to do. I don't know whether it is something that has to do with my zimbra server configuration or what.
What I am trying to do is migrate a users email from my current email server to a domain on my zimbra server. The fqdn of my zimbra server is zimbra.mail.test.com and the domain is @mail.test.com. I am not sure whether that is the reason, but I don't think so. Please help

I have resolved this problem by myself. The password has an amp sign (&). That was what was causing the error. After changing the password to something else, it start moving the emails.
Thanks all for your suggestions.
