No, there are no problems with the Maildirs.

I encountered some trouble with the config file while using the old
1.0-configuration. Namely the plugins (sive, managedsieve and quota)
did not do what I wanted.

This was cured in fifteen minutes by copying my changes from my old
config file in the one delivered with 1.2.

In all cases you should read the webpages addressing the upgrades.
