Watch out for Berkeley DB versions. Most likely, they will differ and

I do not know what, if any, changes SUSE makes, but by default with 2.2,
only the deliver and TLS sessions databases use Berkeley DB, the loss of
which are not terribly consequential. If SUSE changes any of the
default databases, they should be set in /etc/imapd.conf. In other
words, you should not have any problems going between those two
versions.
One potential problem I see is whether or not your SLES 9 is 64-bit or
32 and if version 10 will match. I would not be surprised if a change
like that would invalidate assumptions in the on-disk storage of the
databases.

I don't use sieve, and I haven't set up any sort of 'murder' environment
(which I am largely unfamiliar with). I don't know a lot about Berkeley
DB, other than it is an offline sort of database (it isn't a server, but
a data storage engine, for lack of better words). I am not familiar with
the Berkeley related commands.
The SLES 10 is going on the same physical computer, and yes, it will be
an x86_64 build of Linux.
I could re-enter the users, which isn't the worst thing... my biggest
concern is the mail itself (as most of our users do use IMAP).
