I still miss the answer for:

>> Could you check the permissions on /var/lib/cyrus and it's contents?

And could it be that you ran out of free space in /tmp?

I have tested the migration script throughly, but there still might be some corner cases unhandled.

Well, it would help me to understand what has happened if I could test with real data. So, yes, it would be nice to lay my hands on full backup.
