imapsync allows you to transfer or synchronize data between any two IMAP servers. This could be used in any of several scenarios:

* Upgrading from one mail server to another (SME -> SME, Exchange -> SME, Notes -> SME)
 +
* Backing up email from one IMAP server to another
 +
* Automated spam learning when using SME with an internal mail server (see the [[#Advanced_Example: Exchange Public Folders|Advanced]] example below).
