### mbsync/isync
[isync site](https://isync.sourceforge.io/)
The names isync (the project) and mbsync (the program) are about the same 'thing'
The program is available in the Debian repositories. Install by:
```bash
sudo apt install isync
```
To run mbsync, a configuration file in your home directory is needed. Then run:
```bash
mbsync -a
```
A configuration file for syncing two IMAP mailboxes looks like:
```
# old account
## account access definition
IMAPAccount friendly_name # free format
Host imap.domain.tld # the old/existing mailserver
User email_address@domain.tld # your credentials for that server
Pass secret_password #
SSLType IMAPS # probably IMAPS
CertificateFile /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt
## mbsync account/data reference
IMAPStore friendly_name # free format, easy when identical
Account friendly_name # has to match IMAPAccount above
# new account
## account access definition
IMAPAccount yuno # again, give it a recognizable name
Host mydomain.tld # the new Yunohost mailserver
User my_yuno_user # your Yunohost SSO username
Pass password # and pass
SSLType IMAPS # IMAPS for Yunohost
CertificateFile /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt
## mbsync account/data reference
IMAPStore yuno # again, free to choose, both yuno is easy
Account yuno # again, has to match the name above
# synchronization definition
Channel oldmail2yuno # give this combination of settings a name
Master :friendly_name: # the IMAPStore-name where the old mail is
Slave :yuno: # the IMAPStore-name of your new Yunohost
Patterns * # probably you want everything ...
CopyArrivalDate yes # ... with the original date
Create Slave # if folder/mail does not exist, create it on Yunohost
Expunge None # don't throw things away
Sync All # without sync it would not be so useful
# this directory needs to exist; mkdir manually in advance
Syncstate /home/my_yuno_user/.mbsync_state/ # mkdir `name` has to match this setting, of course
```
