Subject migration support from zarafa to dovecot

Hello everybody,

I am going to migrate 54 inboxes from a zarafa server to a gnu/linux
server that uses dovecot (maildir). Migration is planned on 31 dec.
until 2 jan.

I will donate $2,- for every inbox I can migrate with a single imapsync
command, without the need to manually rename, subscribe, remove
duplicates IMAP folders or messages. (if this does not work I will
donate $1,- for the support)

My first issues is folder naming, I need messages from the Zarafa server
to go to new or exciting folders in the dovecot server.

[zarafa] -> [dovecot]
Deleted Items -> Trash
Infected Items -> Junk
Junk E-mail -> Junk
Sent Items -> Sent
Outbox -> Sent

I hope this is possible with imapsync else I have to use my mad bash
skills on the maildir directories after the migrations.

Second I need mailfolders and mailmessages to be deleted from the source
host after a successful transfer to the destination host.

imapsync \
--allowsizemismatch \
--syncinternaldates \
--reconnectretry1 3 \
--noauthmd5 \
--host1 mail.server.org \
--ssl1 --port1 993 \
--sep1 /
--prefix1 "" \
--split1 500 \
--user1 zarafauser
--passfile1 ~/secret1 \
--delete \
--expunge \
--host2 imap.server.org \
--tls2 \
--authmech2 PLAIN \
--user2 j dot dejong at server dot org \
--passfile2 ~/secret2 \

With kind regards,
