The best way is to recreate them with cyradm, rather than copy them
across. After you've recreated them, you should ideally copy the
messages over using IMAP, but you can also try copying the message files
into the mailbox and running 'reconstruct' on the mailbox to rebuild its
indexes etc.

Just copying the whole folder will not work, as it doesn't create the
appropriate mailboxes.db entries. It is possible to copy the folder then
update the db, but I find it easier to just create the folder using
cyradm in 2.1, then copy messages across.

No idea, sorry - I don't use sasldb.
