We are in the process of settings up a test server to help us test

Dovecot doesn't read that file. (Also AFAIK neither does unpatched
UW-IMAP.)
cat .imaprc
I accept the risk
set mail-subdirectory mail
You can do the same thing by setting in dovecot.conf:
mail_location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u
Of course if some users don't use the ~/mail subdirectory you can get
into more trouble.
We patched UW-IMAP.
All of our users have their mail in ~/mail so that part is covered. We
also are following the advice on the Dovecot migration wiki.
# Username formatting before it's looked up from databases.
# %Lu would lowercase the username
auth_username_format = %Lu
Our mailbox location setting is:
# Location for users' mailboxes
mail_location = mbox:/local/home/%u/mail:INBOX=/local/home/%u/inbox
The biggest headache is going to be converting UW-IMAP subscriptions to
Dovecot.
