I am considering migration to a different free mailbox, such
as rambler.ru (5120 Gb), mail.ru (unlimited), or yandex.ru
(unlimited). I am not sure about Yandex, but the other two
feature buit-in migration tools, which do not seem to
preserve the hierarcy of IMAP folders. Do you know of any
free IMAP synchronisation software capable of migrating an
IMAP mailbox with its folder structure?

Do you think it feasible and practical to set up both
accounts in Sylpheed, manually create the corresponding
folder structure in the target mailbox and then drag-and-
drop e-mails between each pair of corresponding folders?

That would be great! But does not OAuth affect the user's
comfort? Will not the user be forced to jump through hoops
every time he lauches the client?
