My transition from maildir to mdbox occurred so:
/Maildir - an old place of mail
/Mailbox - new

mail_location=%h # set home for all users maildir:/Maildir/user_name

script:
for i in `echo "select name from user|$sql`
do
        res=$(dsync -u $i backup mdbox:/Mailbox/$i)
        if [ $res -eq 0 ];then
               echo "update user set home=\"mdbox:/Mailbox/$i\" where 
name=$i"|$sql
               echo "$i migrated" >> $log
        fi
done
