Then a copy from /var/spool/imap is not enough! cyrus holds a database with the mails in it, and if he will have a new mail, he looks in this db not in /var/spool/imap because it is NOT maildir like!
The accounts from web-cyradm you can import to the new db, and there are all your accounts back! But the mails, i have no idea! Sorry.
