Charles is right, There is little point in migrating mailboxes onto the server now, do the upgrade before! See if you can get a recent 1.2 version or if possible 2.1. More recent versions also have better features to help you with handling or converting a foreign mail store, but that is hardly even the central point here :-)
As for your old mail system, what software does it use? Do you have mailboxes with actual mail in them? Your ls output seems to show only indexes.

Hello everyone and Happy 2013!
I have a situation -- the first ever I have come across -- which I don't understand.
A friend was/is running Postfix and Dovecot - with default configs - nothing was ever changed :-)
[root@mail home]# dovecot --version 0.99.11
