True, except...

Courrier-imap is using maildir mailboxes, so unless the existing
system already uses maildir, there will be some disturbance at the
conversion time.

Can be done very minimally. When we converted from mbox to maildir (coincidentally to courier) about 4 years ago we just did it in the middle of the night and had a script that converted the mbox to maildir (found on a qmail site) and it went fast and quick and mail access was turned off for only a short time...

Probably less of a hassle then moving to cyrus but my experience with cyrus was long ago
