What's new in imapsync 1.452

Jul 29, 2011
  • A new --search option was added, allowing you to select messages with the powerful IMAP SEARCH command.
  • What can be done is selection by dates, any flag, From, Subject, body string, any Header, sizes, uids, etc.
  • Bugs were fixed to better handle folder creation, so it's no longer a failure when a folder "already exists" during its creation.
  • The way imapsync deals with headers was improved so that message duplicate issues are now rare.
  • Reconnections are well done in TLS mode now.
  • Many other small bugfixes and usability improvements were made.
  • The default behavior is now the best one for most cases.

New in imapsync 1.404 (Feb 22, 2011)

  • This version adds better performance and reliability.
  • A --usecache option speeds up transfers when using multiple runs by a factor of at least two.
  • A --useuid can be used to speed up or deal with problems using headers (by avoiding duplicate transfers).
  • The performance of --usecache when used with MS Exchange was improved.
  • A 'not enough memory' issue with big messages was fixed by using the Mail-IMAPClient 3.27 Perl module.
  • The license hasn't changed, but Imapsync is no longer gratis from the home page.

New in imapsync 1.383 (Nov 29, 2010)

  • Several improvements to reach better usability.
  • Authentication cram-md5 is not used by default (too few servers support it).
  • Issues from servers changing or adding header are avoided.
  • Now imapsync has a way to handle no header in messages efficiently.
  • The IMAP server dkimap is supported (dkimap isn't a UID capable server).
  • NTLM authentication with domain has been added.
  • A --minsize option has been added to transfer messages bigger than a given size.
  • Memory consumption measurement has been added to compute how many concurrent imapsync processes can run in parallel on a system.
  • Imapsync is no longer gratis from the home page.

New in imapsync 1.286 (Sep 3, 2009)

  • Gmail IMAP is now supported.
  • This version works fine under Windows XP, and works with Mail::IMAPClient 3.xx and 2.2.9.
  • Many bugs were fixed.

New in imapsync 1.255 (Sep 9, 2008)

  • Some IMAP servers return a message size that is not equal to the real message size.
  • Now imapsync accepts this silly behavior and leaves the message as is.
