SYNTAXimapxfer {source_host}prefix {destination_host}prefix
DESCRIPTIONimapxfer copies entire mailboxes from the named

copied. If a prefix is specified after the
destination_host that prefix is pre-pended in front of the
mailbox name on the destination.

format. See your system manager for more information
about the types of mailboxes which are available on your
system.
RESTRICTIONS
You must surround a {host}prefix argument with quotation
marks if you run imapxfer from csh(1) or another shell for
which braces have special meaning.
