    So when moving mailboxes from UWash to Cyrus, the obvious solution seemed
    to be use imapsync.

    I just did a test-run of it moving my own mailbox from UW to Cyrus. It
    looks like the UIDL changes in the process, so any POP client is going to
    do double-downloads of INBOX contents.

    Is there any way to preserve the UIDL information? I took a look at RFC1939
    and it leaves the implementation of how this is derived to the software. I
    gather it's typically a hashed valued of the message contents, so I would
    have thought a message would have same hashed value on 2 different server.
    Apparently not. How does Cyrus derive the UIDL?
