Another tool that I used for "small" migrations was imapsync.  Michael, 
I beleive I sent you my patched version of imapsync.  Could you tell me 
what was a speed difference between imapsync and mailutil that you 
observed?  I'll need to move one huge mailbox in near future, so just 
wondering if it would make sense using mailutil for this job instead of 
imapsync.
