Question : IMAP transfer procedure

My small business is going to be changing webhosts.  Several of us use IMAP and thus our mail is located on our host's servers.  Can anyone recommend a procedure (or software solution?) that would allow us to easily transfer our folder structure and messages over to the new host?  I'm thinking that I just have to do it manually by creating the local folders, dragging and dropping the messages, and then on the new host doing the reverse.  Does anyone know of a more elegant solution?

Thanks!!!

Answer : IMAP transfer procedure

Just use an IMAP client in replicated mode (offline).  It should bring over the folder structure locally intact.  The foldr structure should then move over properly to the new IMAP service.

Honestly, if you are going beyond POP3, why don't you use a full-fledged corporate mail system -- Domino, Exchange, or GroupWise?
