I fond some 1,2,3... files here, but they don't belong to the Received or Inbox folders (there is no such folders here in the backup directory).

The actual messages are stored in the numbered files.

Simply restore all the files in the archive, then get rid all the cyrus.cache, cyrus.squat, and cyrus.index files. Then, run the reconstruct and quota commands.
Hi, I noticed some of the backup has numbered files, while others don't have.
For example, the following folders have does not have numbered folders:

# ls -l /usr/local/ab/
total 14100
drwx------  2 cyrus wheel       512 Aug  1 17:24 Drafts
drwx------  2 cyrus wheel       512 Aug  1 17:24 Sent Items
drwx------  2 cyrus wheel       512 Aug  1 17:24 Trash
-rw-------  1 cyrus wheel         4 Aug  1 17:24 cyrus.cache
-rw-------  1 cyrus wheel       179 Aug  1 17:24 cyrus.header
-rw-------  1 cyrus wheel        76 Aug  1 17:24 cyrus.index
-rw-------  1 cyrus wheel     39983 Aug  1 17:24 cyrus.squat

When I followed your steps to restore these folders/files, I found no messages in the Inbox. But when I restored the other files which have numbered files like the following, I will have the backup mail files restored.

# ls -l
total 3722
-rw-------  1 60  wheel  1669744 Aug  1 12:05 86.
-rw-------  1 60  wheel    16018 Aug  1 12:11 87.
-rw-------  1 60  wheel  2042642 Aug  1 16:09 88.
drwx------  2 60  wheel      512 Aug  1 15:39 Drafts
drwx------  2 60  wheel     1024 Aug  1 15:39 Sent Items
drwx------  2 60  wheel      512 Aug  1 15:39 Trash
-rw-------  1 60  wheel     5564 Aug  1 16:09 cyrus.cache
-rw-------  1 60  wheel      179 Jun  5 13:09 cyrus.header
-rw-------  1 60  wheel      256 Aug  1 16:09 cyrus.index
-rw-------  1 60  wheel    26462 Aug  1 15:39 cyrus.squat

Are these outcome sound right to you?
Thanks
