Or we're just lazy sometimes. ;)
You can probably use the uw-imap -> cyrus migration scripts I wrote to
handle this problem. They use a combination of formail and some perl to
get it right. Check it out on the cyrus wiki at:
http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki/bin/view/Cyrus/MboxCyrusMigration
You'll need to take a close look at those to make sure you don't overwrite
existing cyrus messages. The scripts assuming they can start numbering at
1.
