Migrating from Dovecot to Cyrus

I have used imapsync to migrate clients mail to my servers running cyrus.

I am not sure if the UIDs are preserved but I have not had any problems 
with clients.

That being said they are usually changing there credentials and setting 
up a new account with the move so some issues that would show up with a 
conversion of the mailstore could be hidden.
