README

m2m - Move from POP3 to Maildir

• v1.5.2
• Just pull mails from POP3 servers (TLS can be disabled) and put them in local Maildirs. Proxies can be used, onion can be used.
• RFC6856 compliant (UTF8 before anything) so works with Courier as well.
• It can keep mails on the server, but does not remember/store which have been seen.
• Based on github.com/unkaktus/mm

Install

• go install github.com/pepa65/m2m@latest
• The directory ~/.m2m.conf contains all the account config files which are checked in lexical order. The file name is the account name. (See the Example file in the repo).
• The config files have the POP3 server config details and the Maildir location:
  • username: POP3 username
  • password: POP3 password
  • tlsdomain: Server domainname according to the certificate
  • server: IP/Domainname of the server
  • port: Port (default: 995)
  • proxyport: IP/Domainname with port of the proxy server (server:port) (default: empty, not used)
  • tls: true/false - Use TLS (default) or not
  • keep: true/false - Keep mails on the POP3 server or delete them (default)
  • maildir: Path to the Maildir directory (default: ~/Maildir)
• The config files (being YAML files) can have comments (starting with '#').
