       improved_mboxlist_sort: 0
            If  enabled, a special comparator will be used which will correctly sort mailbox names that contain
            characters such as ' ' and '-'.

            Note that this option SHOULD NOT be changed on a live system.  The  mailboxes  database  should  be
            dumped before the option is changed, removed, and then undumped after changing the option.

I suspect you'll be wanting to dump the mailboxes.db, turn that on,
restore the mailboxes.db, and continue.  This is the biggest nasty
suckage with current Cyrus.  I wish we'd handled the transition
somehow better.  I'm seriously considering a special key in
the mailboxes.db which says if this has been done, and magic in
ctl_cyrusdb -r that looks for the special key and fixes it up if
this isn't the case - then forces it to be turned on.  Would have
to be done with quotas and subscriptions as well, but man would it
be worth it.
