To replace the inner find, you could look at
doveadm move -u <user> savedbefore ...

To replace maildirmake -f, look at
doveadm mailbox create -u <user>

But you seem to create a new Maildir with each invokation of $MDM (no -f 
option). IMHO it seems to be easier to make a small script, that creates 
new/cur/tmp and, if not INBOX, touches maildirfolder.

Kind regards,
