Thanks for the link, but the page is not really speaking about the matter. I clarify my question: How to convert a "sdbox" system (in production) to "mdbox" without loosing any email ?

Maybe you could also use a script which runs after the user login. See http://wiki.dovecot.org/PostLoginScripting -- Daniel
