imapsync with zimbra under ubuntu hardy
I have been working with Zimbra Open Source Edition a few weeks, and you may notice this version works in a wide range of flavours like Debian, Fedora, Ubuntu, Slackware, etc, but I you are thinking in pass to Network Edition you have to know that doesn’t work in the same enviroments that OSE (support for Zimbra), for example we thought in using Zimbra OS with Debian Etch for a while because our boss are thinking in buying next year the Network Edition and zimbra guys doesn’t have a binary or installer most closer obviosly is Ubuntu Server 8.04. Well under this issue and preparing a migration plan, I had tested lot of tools that I saw in zimbra wiki, especially imapsync because is the recommended tool for migration your old mail server to zimbra, but under ubuntu hardy had a problem (I said had because was fixed in newer versions) , in general was a problem with a perl library called libdate-manip-perl and imapsync depends from him.
Solution for this is only install with apt-get install libdate-manip-perl and vouala, just works!
