💅 kopano-migration-pst(8) — Kopano Core user reference 🎀

okay bestie, sit down, hydrate, and let me tell you about kopano-migration-pst 💖 this is the manual page for it, and yes it's a whole vibe.

✨ NAME ✨

kopano-migration-pst — literally the utility that imports PST files into Kopano. that's the whole job. no cap. 🌸

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

kopano-migration-pst [OPTION...] [PATH]

---

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

so kopano-migration-pst is a utility to import PST files into Kopano. and here's the tea: PST files are basically MAPI dumps, and Kopano also uses MAPI internally, so there should be practically no data loss — even including calendar data. the way that works out?? iconic. 💜

💅 OPTIONS 💅

one bullet per option, every single one, no skipping, periodt.

• --auth-pass, -P PASS — authenticate with the specified password.
• --auth-user, -U NAME — authenticate as the specified user.
• --clean-folders — empty out the target folders before importing into them.
• --create-ex-mapping FILE — create a JSON file with a mapping of legacyExchangeDN to a found email address. this one's for migrating Exchange-generated PSTs that include a legacyExchangeDN instead of an email address in the from and sender properties. the mapping it generates can be passed to --ex-mapping when importing a PST. and yes, you can hand it multiple PST files to generate that mapping file. 🫶
• --config, -c FILE — load configuration settings from the specified file.
• --dismiss-reminders — dismiss reminders for events in the past. bye bye guilt 🙈
• --folder, -f PATH — import only folder(s) with the specified path(s).
• --import-root PATH — import data under a folder with a specific path (or name).
• --index — list the messages/items contained in the specified PST file.
• --log-level, -l NAME — specify the log-level, for example 'error', 'warning' 'info' or 'debug'.
• --ex-mapping FILE — use a mapping file to look up an email address for items that only have a legacyExchangeDN.
• --server-socket, -s SOCKET — connect to the storage server through the specified socket.
• --ssl-key, -k FILE — specify the SSL key file.
• --ssl-pass, -p PASSWORD — specify the SSL key password.
• --stats — list the folders contained in the specified PST file.
• --store, -S GUID — GUID of the store where the specified PST file should be imported (or "public" to import into the public store).
