Using the following command, you can install the imapsync tool if you don't have it already:

sudo yum install imapsync

Starting the Migration Process

Using the below command on the cPanel server, you can now begin the migration process.

imapsync --host1 imap.gmail.com --port1 993 --ssl1 --user1 gaurav@thatisfun.in --passfile1 /home/gaurav/pass1 --host2 eternity.herosite.pro --port2 993 --ssl2 --user2 gaurav@thatisfun.in --passfile2 /home/gaurav/pass2

The username for the account needs to be replaced with gaurav.

/home/gaurav/pass1 – Store your gmail account password in this file
/home/gaurav/pass2 – Store your cpanel account password in this file

You can migrate to cPanel from G Suite using this method!
