- I’m not amazingly skilled when it comes to Linux but I’m working through installing and testing #imapsync - imapsync.lamiral.info on Debian following these instructions imapsync.lamiral.info/INSTALL.… - I’m a bit confused as it talks about example config files in a configuration directory but being a bit of a dunce I’m not sure where these would have been installed and where I should be creating config files for imapsync. My objective is to eventually sync my Gmail across to another email account I have via IMAP.

    Usually config directories and file are found in /etc. I guess there’s a /etc/imapsync/imapsync.conf
    If there isn’t then the conf-file(s) should be somewhere in the /home directory.

    Try the man page if one exists. That one should explain everything: man imapsync

      @Krik Yeah no man page and /etc/imapsync doesn’t exist - I’ve also had a look at the documentation on the site (imapsync.lamiral.info/ but the documentation feels a bit free form - I mean Hey its free software I don’t expect anything - I have managed to get it running using the example config I found on the site and just creating a folder in a subdirectory of my ~/ and seem to be making some progress with some dry runs. I’m actually hoping to move emails into my email account running on #yunohost.
