Thank you for the recommendation.  I did get it to work.  It ran quite 
slowly, but I suspect I was being throttled by Gmail.
I did have a problem with a memory leak.  So I had to kill it and 
restart it a couple of times.  I was moving a 2GB mail account and it 
grew to over 25GB with less than 20% done.  I found a recommendation to 
use the “-useuid” option which made it grow much more slowly (I 
still suspect a memory leak - just a much smaller one). I do agree it is 
a very powerful tool.
