Here are the statistics from the first run:
++++ Statistics ++++
Time : 2454 sec
Messages transfered : 5820
Messages skipped : 198
Total bytes transfered : 51575344
Total bytes skipped : 29284546
Total bytes error : 18765985
Detected 1662 errors
I tried the --skipheader option, but I still had a lot of errors. In
order to get the rest, I used Thunderbird's "Redirect" option. This
way, I was able to move all of the messages to the new account. Now
I'll just use Thunderbird's filters to move them to the right folders.
