Yes and no, some hold temporary information, but the most ones contain
meta information.

Yes

duplicate the directory hierarchie and copy/move the files there, control
files are dovecot-uidlist and subscriptions, the index files are
dovecot.index*

Dovecot is creating the directory hierarchie per user itself, for new
users. In this case /var/dovecot is a tmp-like directory with 1777
permissions.
If you pre-create the directory per user, the standard permissions apply.
BTW: The direcotory is variable-expanded,
http://wiki.dovecot.org/Variables, see the %u in the sample.
