=========================================================================================
  1) Installing imapsync using WSL, the Windows Subsystem for Linux
=========================================================================================

I haven't tested it myself so far, Gilles Lamiral, using WSL, but it is possible and pretty simple.

From Piotr Biesiada:

I needed to run:

cpan Encode::IMAPUTF7
cpan File::Copy::Recursive
cpan IO::Tee
cpan Mail::IMAPClient
cpan Term::ReadKey
cpan Unicode::String
cpan Readonly
cpan Sys::MemInfo
cpan Regexp::Common
cpan File::Tail
cpan Test::MockObject
cpan Net::DNS

Yet then imapsync was running ok in WSL (--tests and --testslive).
