I couldn't figure out how to run cyrus2courier using dovemap style
maildir under the users' home directories.  And I suspected
cyrus2maildir.py was limited.

So I set up dovemap on a different machine, and ran imapsync
transferring the messages.

That worked fine, but to my disappointment the Gnus tickmarks haven't
been preserved.  As far as I know dovemap preserves client specific
marks.  Have I been mistaken in that nnimap stores its tickmarks as
custom marks on the messages?  Have I overlooked some imapsync arguments
to preserve these marks?  Do I have a too old dovecot (1.0.16) to expect
custom marks to work?

Thanx!
