Assuming that you looked at "man doveadm-move" (I had to dig for a few 
minutes to uncover that)...

EXAMPLE
Move jane's messages - received in September 2011 - from her INBOX into 
her archive.

doveadm move -u jane Archive/2011/09 mailbox INBOX BEFORE \
2011-10-01 SINCE 01-Sep-2011

At a guess... "Archive/2011/09" can be either a path relative to the 
origin user, or an absolute destination such as:

maildir:/backup/20101126/jane.doe/Maildir

I don't know if it automatically handles putting the proper permissions 
on the destination files though.  I'm basing that guess on the examples 
at the bottom of "man doveadm-import".
