Did you use an IMAP client, or did you just create the subdirectories in the filesystem and then copy the mail into them? Can you see these subdirectories using cyradm? $ cyradm your.server.com your.server.com> lm user.username.* If you just created them as directories in the filesystem and did not use an IMAP client, remove the subdirectories you created from the filesystem, recreate them using an IMAP client, then copy the mail back and reconstruct.
