Looks like some sort of Maildir.

Postfix does not access the Mailspool from Cyrus-Imap. It delivers the Mails 
through LMTP to Cyrus-Imapd. Neither it reads Mails from Filesystem, nor it 
writes them to the Filesystem.

If you have already configured Postfix to write Mails to Cyrus-Imapd 
Filesystem Hierarchy, correct this.
