-u is for user

-m is for mailbox

-s is for sieve scripts

-u username will sync all subfolders of user.username (user/username),
the sieve scrips and the mailbox subscription. So -u for each user
and -m for shared and news mailboxes.

You don't need the -S option if the syncserver is configured in  
/etc/imapd.conf
