hopefully simple newbie question - configuring for 1-time backup

[Miles Fidelman]

Hi Folks,

I'm thinking of using offlineimap to do a one-time backup of mail from an account I no longer use.

I have iredmail installed on our current server, and there's lots of documentation about how to integrate offlineimap with courier, and syncing accounts - but that's not my issue.

I just want to point offlineimap at an account, do a one-time pull into a set of archive folders - unintegrated with our current email system - without breaking anything.

Any suggestions.  For that matter, is offlineimap the right tool?

Thanks,

Miles Fidelman
