Not all mailboxes listed when migrating to new server

To recap: I am migrating a Cyrus IMAP server to new hardware. To
migrate the accounts I did the following on the old server:

ctl_mboxlist -d > /tmp/mailboxes.dump

...and on the server:

/usr/sbin/ctl_mboxlist -u < /tmp/mailboxes.dump
/usr/sbin/cyrreconstruct

(This is a Debian system, so the "reconstruct" command has
been renamed).

Within cyradm, a "lm" lists a number (maybe all) of the shared
mailboxes, but only three folders from two users' mailboxes. There
are 98 users with a total of 2797 folders, so are large number are not
being listed.

Using iampsync, I can successfully copya user's mail data from the
old to the new system, but that user's mailbox is still not listed
with the 'lm' command.

Can anyone shed any light on what is happening here?

Thanks,
Keith
