I do not have the legal skills to discuss wether your webpage and your distribution policy of imapsync (http://www.linux-france.org/prj/imapsync/) is compatible or not with the debian social contract. I will leave this to the debian-legal people.

According to the author, imapsync continues to be available under the WTFPL [1]. So from the license point of view this is not a problem, no matter whether he charges for the copies or not. I doubt, however, that there is precedent for the Debian project paying for the code in such a situation, but I might be wrong.
