Cyrus requires complete conversion of email system.

Courier requires conversion of mailbox format and changes in local delivery
agent.

Dovecot can use existing mbox mailboxes, but if you do that without
converting them to maildirs, you are only removing specific UW 2006+
features and not fixing mailbox performance issues. Dovecot developers can
port those uw features, if they use UW imap server as reference. rfc3501
(current imap4rev1 standard) does not say that noselect folders can't be
subscribed.

Is error from SquirrelMail 1.5.2-dev or 1.4.x? Do you have UID support
turned on in 1.4.x setup?

I am not SquirrelMail developer. I'll never use 1.5.2-dev myself and I have
solved UW issue in a different way. I've recommended unstable 1.5.2-dev
version only because it has updated folder generation code and new code adds
missing parent folders.
