I don't know if this matters...

# cat /etc/imapd.conf
configdirectory: /var/lib/imap
partition-default: /var/spool/imap

# ls -ld /var/spool/imap/
drwx------   10 cyrus    mail         4096 Jul 25 20:25 /var/spool/imap/

# ls -ld /var/lib/imap
drwxr-x---   17 cyrus    mail         4096 Sep  7 16:14 /var/lib/imap
