New Pleskian
What I used in the past to "move" my e-mail from one place to the other is the Linux program called "imapcopy".
Here is a website where they explain how you can do it, even with using a SSL Connection.
Migrate emails with Imapcopy
Hope this will help you with it!

Agree, there are several tools available include Imapcopy or Imapsync : Imapsync similar softwares and external services
I created a wrapper for my own use around imapsync.
It's in fact 2 wrappers syncimap (wrapper for imapsync) and pleskmailmigrate (wrapper for syncimap)
I'm not giving support on it, but it's here: Issue - Plesk migrator error
I only need it now and then.
Most of the time I work a bit on the script when I'm using it.
But it beats doing the migration manually.
If you configured the mail on your new pleskserver with the same passwords, you can migrate all accounts with 1 command.
You can also stop it generating the configs for syncimap. (the -o option)
That way you can tweak the configs after issuing the command for the first time.
You can of course use imapsync only
