I can't imagine I'm the first person to do an upgrade by building a new system and copying everything over. To me its a lot safer than upgrading a production machine and leaves a nice fallback. If I can beyond this one issue... I think all will be good from here.

I could be off beat here, but after you copied the new files over to your new box, did you reconstruct the mailbox in cyradm?

Some more info...
first off, since I was seeing the problem in Squirrelmail, I joined their mailing list. They all think its cyrus or cyradm related. So I did some tests. Again, logging in as my test user 'link0001', I see the Inbox, Draft, Sent, and Trah folders. From the command line, I also see my other folders such as Personal and Work (I copied the directory from my other server).
If I do: cyradm --user link0001 --server localhost --auth plain
I can log in just fine. Doing an "lm" only shows the same folders I am seeing in Squirrelmail. So now I'm realizing that I have two different programs (cyradm and Squirrelmail) that are getting the same results. Perhaps this means the problem is with Cyrus?
Interesting, if I go from the command line and move the Personal folder, then go to Squirrelmail -> Folders and create the folder "Personal", then log out, delete the Personal folder at the command line and move the original back, then back into Squirrelmail, it can see the folder and its contents.
And most confusing... the filesystem permissions and settings on the folder created in Squirrelmail are the same as the original one on the filesystem. No difference at all.
Any ideas? Is there a flag I need to pass to cyrus? Or perhaps a compile time option?

Well, I've made quite a bix of progress. Now I'm trying to test migration since my next step is to migrate off my old server.
On my new server, I have a user called link0001. On my old server, I have a user called link0033. I tarred up link0033, copied the file over, untar'd it and renamed all the link0033's to link0001 and set the correct permissions. I then logged into my new server via Squirrelmail. I can log in fine and see the Inbox with sub-folders of Trash, Drafts, and Sent. Drafts and Trash are empty, as they are on my old server. Sent has some content as it does on my old server. So far so good. Now the problem is that there were previously created 10 or 12 other folders... such as Bounce, Spam, Work, Personal, etc. These are not showing up. And if I go through the Squirrelmail 'Folders' option, I don't see them available to be subscribed to. However, from the filesystem level, I see the contents of the sub-folders and the permissions are the same on both my old and new server. Has anyone dealt with this before? Is there a special way of copying these over?
For the sake of it, I IMAP'd in from Outlook Express and KMail both and get the same results that I see in Squirrelmail.
