Of course you created a backup before you tried a new IMAP server on
your important e-mails. :) I don't think your messages are gone. What
about using a mail client like Thunderbird to look into your mailbox
instead of telnet? If they're still gone (and also on the file system
level), I'd suggest looking at the logfile of dovecot to figure out why.
