Did you try to not use --subscribe option?
if you use --folder option, I think you should use with "Sent" folder, not "SENT" folder
And the last question, which old mailserver did you use?

Imapsync retriving the SENT Folder of Source & Dst and showing me Both has 141 Emails.But On Zimbra mail server i have delete All Sent Emails,But Still it showing me 141 Message ?? & not syncing emails.

Where is problem ?

Thanks and Waiting.

It looks like you have two "Sent" folders. One is the real sent folder that has 2 messages in it, the other is a "Sent" subfolder to the Inbox folder. Have you tried looking there?

[dalmate]

Imapsync only sync mail from your old server to your new server (zimbra), so if you only delete mail in zimbra and run imapsync, all mail in sent folder of old server will migrate to zimbra again
And as ArcaneMagus said: you have two folders in zimbra: Sent and SENT, did you check both?
Following your log, I think imapsync did successfully its mission

[farrukhndm]

Great ArcaneMagus, My 'Sent' Synced Items are placed in Inbox-Sent,so i find them

again thanks.

Previously till Oct-2008 my old server was on Postfix/Squirrel mail /Dovecot. imapsync is syncing account till that date.

Aft Oct-2008 i have installed OpenWebmail Gui.i have added account in Openwebmail as PoP3.Imapsync is not syncing the SENT item which are sent from Openwebmail Pop3 Accounts.

Is there SENT folder path different in Pop3 Account in OpenWebmail.?
if yes then how can i give path of Source Sent Folder(Configured as Pop3 in openwebmail) in imapsync command?

[ArcaneMagus]

What backend mailstore was Openwebmail using? Was it the same as the previous setup (that you say is already synced)? Or is it a different backend?

[farrukhndm]

Yes, Open webmail is using same mail storage that is already synced.Openwebmail Inbox Folder Is synced with my zimbra server but Openwebmail SENT Items are not in my Zimbra Mailbox -> inbox-sent folder or root SENT folder.

imapsync only synced my Sent items,that are before Account configrations as POP3 in Openwebmail.

Where Openwebmail Pop3 Account SENT items are Stored.while inbox is stored at the same placed! why my inbox is syncing ?


[root@mail .openwebmail]# pwd
/home/username/.openwebmail
[root@mail .openwebmail]# ls
autologin.check.db history.log pop3 webaddr webdisk
db openwebmailrc release.date webcal webmail
