converting sppol and config dirs from 2.1.x to 2.2.x (WAS: cyrus 2.2.3 & virtual)

[Paul Dorneanu]

No, I don't use perdition and I would not like to use it.

so, having virtdomains: userid I will be able to login with 
use_domaintld (which are mapped to the default domain) without the need 
to manually convert the accounts.
also i will be able to convert account to user at domain.tld.

still, there remains one unanswered question: when I created a user in 
the new format: user at domain.tld with the virtdomains: on I was not able 
to login. do you know why?
