If I remember correctly imapsync does not copy all of the underlying 
user context.
Would imapsync copy the calendar information along with things like 
annotations?


I am thinking of a tool that is fairly simple.
Not the Backula or Amanda of cyrus but more like unix/linux dump and 
restore.

Something that would dump a complete cyrus context and do checking on 
the way out into a single file.
then allow a restore with some level of checking into a similar environment.

The ability to go from version N backup to version N+1 restore would 
also sort of be required.
