man sync_client is your friend.

I guess you are running rolling replication, this will sync all
mailboxes when they change, which may take a while.
To do the initial sync you need to run sync_client -u or -m with
a list of all users or a list with all mailboxes. If you use sieve
you should use -u or you have to -s with a userlist to sync the
sievescripts
