I would like to convert my Pegasus Folders (WinPMail version: Version 4.63 (Win32), Dec 22 2011, build ID 325) from POP to IMAP. My server is Yahoo.

 Like the original poster I have many user defined folders containing many old emails.

 This thread is dated 2009 and I wonder if it still applies or is there a more up-to-date method.

Thanks for any advice.

Is there a utility / a way within Pegasus Mail V4.41 to convert many pop3 folders within Pegasus to IMAP folders without having to create the output IMAP folder then copy in the emails and repeat this for every POP folder.

Some Users have 300+ folders.

 Many Thanks

Yes, I got this utility from Jay Lee Network / Systems Administrator.  You need yo use Mercury/32 as well.

Download Mercury/32 and install it on your computer.  You'll need to configure it with a default user account and copy your Pegasus mail account folder (probably c:\pmail\mail) to the default user account.  Make sure you install the IMAP module.  Test your setup within WinPMail, you should be able to create a new IMAP profile connecting to 127.0.0.1 and see your Mail folders.

Now download IMAPCopy:
http://www.ardiehl.de/imapcopy/index.html

Configure it to copy from 127.0.0.1 to your IMAP Server remote account. These configuration settings are entered into the ImapCopy.cfg file.  Then run:

imapcopy.exe -s -e

the -e tells IMAPCopy to copy all folders, including empty ones and the -s tells IMAPCopy to subscribe you to any folders that are created on the destination.  When IMAPCopy finishes, you should have all your Pegasus Mail folders/messages moved to the IMAP Server.

Hi Thomas,

Thank you very much for the prompt and detailed reply.
