No. You only need to consider that if you need to go back to the default configuration, every dot in a mailbox name will be converted to a ^. So the mailbox "antoine.jacoutot" will become "antoine^jacoutot", and "antoine.jacoutot/my-old-emails" will become "antoine^jacoutot.my-old-emails". Check the cyrus documentation for more info.
